<quote> mount / -o remount,rw
this will gain you full write access to the "/"/root partition/dir.</quote>

After this command, simply type in:

vi /etc/fstab

fstab will open up in vi (vim?)  Press the letter i to get into "insert" mode (edit mode).  Go the the beginning of the line you added, which starts LABEL=/ and place a hash mark # in front of that line.  Hit ESCAPE key and type the following:

:wq 

This will save the changes to the fstab file.  The hash mark tells the system to ignore the line directly after it. 

Ctrl+D reboots, and your system should start back up.

 

Cheers,
