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. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Willow: Oz is a werewolf.
