Subject:   console output for fixit floppy goes to vty2

Two bugs to report here:

1. Perhaps mount should say ", perhaps the filesystem is not clean?" when
it gets an "Operation not permitted" error.  I had no clue why the fixit
floppy was refusing to let me mount my root filesystem.

2. Perhaps the fixit sh should be started on vty2; I had no reason to
expect that I had to switch to vty2 to see the

WARNING: R/W mount of / denied. Filesystem is not clean - run fsck.

message that appeared there.

Sigh.

(P.S. Maybe it's 3 bugs that I'm reporting here -- the whole reason I needed
to boot the fixit floppy is because the 2.1 upgrade installed the MD5 password
system over my 2.0.5 system that was set up for crypt...)
