Re: Determining why I'm getting dropped to the emergency shell?

[Roger Heflin]

mount -a and see what fails is usually a good idea.

A good plan is to add the entry to fstab, umount the what currently
mounted for it, and then do a test "mount /directory/location/only" so
it will use the fstab data and  see if it can mount with what is in
fstab.

Doing it that way has saved me from emergency mode a number of times.
