Will this be the same type of shell as if I did an alt-f2?
Do I need to mount anything?
How much stuff do I need to mount? Just the root partition? Root and a swap?
Root and /usr?
What exactly will be different when I furn fsck like this versus the bottup
process trying to run it? I don't very much understand why it doesn't work
(other than the obvious hands on nature of linux).
thanks,
Chris
