or while it's in single user mode with the read only /; do a mount -o remount / to get the filesystem into read write, edit your fstab file and reboot.

Hello All,

So My Drobo finished formatting and I added an entry to fstab for it and now I cannot boot the machine. I get an error about

fsck.ext3: is a directory while trying to open /drobo and then a mention of a valid super block

I had mounted the Drobo as /drobo and in 'fstab' I copied the line for '/' changing to ext3 where it was ext4.

I have made a mistake

I cannot fix it because trying to edit fstab results in a "read only file system message"

Can anyone help me learn how to recover?
