I stil get this when I try to get in  from rescue mode, so I went back
to "The Standard Way", rearranged the lines of the kernel a little 
and tried again ->SUCCES(almost) I've got the root password changed BUT
it only works in CLI. It's still impossible to install anything using
the GUI. Actually I can live with that (I usually prefer working in CLI)
but I would like to know exactly what went wrong between GUI and CLI ?
Any wisdom to share, anybody ?
