Hi guys!

I have a problem, help me!

I had 3 SCSI disks on my server with 2.2.7, I brought new IDE one and
installed 3.1, IDE became bootable, I mounted old disks like this:

#File fstab
.
.
.
/dev/wd0s2e    /    ufs    rw    2    2
/dev/da0s2    /.1    ufs    rw    2    2
/dev/da1s1    /.2    ufs    rw    2    2
/dev/da2s1    /.3    ufs    rw    2    2
.
.

the old fstab on da0 (on old system it was sd0) was:

# Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump
Pass#
/dev/sd0s2b             none            swap    sw              0
0
/dev/sd0s1              /dos            msdos   rw              0
0
/dev/sd0s2a             /               ufs     rw              1
1
/dev/sd0s2f             /usr            ufs     rw              2
2
/dev/sd0s2e             /var            ufs     rw              2
2
/dev/sd1s1              /.2             ufs     rw              2
2
/dev/sd2s1              /.3             ufs     rw              1
1
proc                    /proc           procfs  rw              0
0


when I tried to mount firs time da0s2f,  then da0s1   on boot I get
shell prompt in single user mode, I cannot boot any more because of
fstab, and cannot reedit or backup fstab bacuse of "read-only
filesystem"

please, teach me how to make the filesystem in single user mode
"read-write",

and how to mount old partitions e.g. /dev/sd0s2f  on new system?

just I need old partitions to move old data..


Thanks in advance
