I am moving a system to a new hdd. I forgot redo the fstab file so now it
errors on boot. I can get a prompt and cat the file but get a "file system
read only" whenever I try to correct it. Is there any way to get in to
modify the fstab at this point. I have a copy of the correct fstab as
fstab.bak in /etc.

PS this is the second time I have made this mistake, the first time I wiped
out the new HDD and started over at the beginning. I can do this but am
hoping to find an easier way.
