Phew, I just made a stupid mistake with the change on beow mentioned RH9 server and was almost crying. While I was editing /etc/fstab not knowingly I changed the first line, which was the main root directory, so it wouldn’t boot AT ALL…. After about 4 hours (felt longer) of struggle, I had to post to BJLUG and here is what I had to do: start from the install disk -> Type boot: linux rescue -> once in the shell, mkdir /mnt/root (or whatever) -> mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/root -t ext3 -> Then vi /mnt/root/etc/fstab. Thank you, Suzuki-san from BJLUG!
