Make sure you know how to use all the above commands before you use Rescue Mode. If your root filesystem is undamaged, you can mount it and then run any standard Linux utility. For example, suppose your root filesystem is in /dev/hda5. Here is how to mount this partition: mount -t ext2 /dev/hda5 /foo Where /foo is a directory that you have created. Now you can run chroot, fsck, man, and other utilities. At this point, you are running Linux in single-user mode. If you do not know the names of your Linux partitions, you can guess; mounting non-existent partitions will do no harm. getting started guide 2-13
