Attempting to use 'rescue mode" to automatically mount my system under /mnt/sysimage eventally fails with an error message, which essentially says 'mount error' and nothing else. I am then put at a command prompt as root.

I'm guessing (I'm not all that familiar with the sysimage thing--I usually just mount things on /mnt) that you probably need to do

mount -o bind /dev /mnt/sysimage/dev mount -o bind /proc /mnt/sysimage/proc

However, as I said, I'm not familiar with the sysimage thing, I've always just skipped that when using rescue and gone to a shell prompt.

So, take that as a major disclaimer.
