Hi Managers,

I have 2 problems :

1. 1of the hard disks in the system crashed , the system comes up only in a
Single User mode .
     Is it normal ? Shouldn't the system come up in mulit-user mode even if
1 of the disks (not the root) crashes.
     I want to take out that particular mount point entry from the fstab
file , but I am not able to do so
     since / is mounted as read-only . How do I change the fstab entry ? Do
I have to boot from cdrom ?

2. I am using a dell keyboard connected to the console. At the boot prompt
all the keys function normally ,but when the
    system comes up , some of the keys don't work ( like # , | ) .Is it a
keyboard mapping problem ?

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Pravin
