Hi:
I forgot to add a quote mark in rc.conf. Now my system will not boot fully.
It takes me to a shell prompt from which I can move around the system
("cd") and execute simple commands like "ls" but I can't bring up an editor
(I tried vi and ee) and when I tried to use mv to rename rc.conf (thinking
that the system would boot with only the settings in /etc/defaults/rc.conf),
the system responded that the drive was read-only.
What can I do to get my system booting properly again?
John
