[Bug 1061239] Re: system hangs after selecting certain menu items inRecovery Menu

[John]

Still no progress...?

For people still encountering it, with /dev/sda1 being your /:
1. 'root       Drop to root shell prompt'
2. optional, fsck -f /dev/sda1
3. mount /dev/sda1 / -o remount,rw
4. you now can write on /
