I entered rescue/sh after

#
# fsck -y

After reboot I have the same problem. Please reply

Of note, [cmd=]rescue/sh[/cmd] is different from [cmd=]/rescue/sh[/cmd], I think. I am unable to test this, but perhaps clarification will help for someone else.

Hi,

If you're unable to run /bin/sh or /rescue/sh from single-user mode, then that probably means that the root filesystem is too corrupted to mount and you need a shell to run fsck to repair it.

I would suggest downloading the ISO image for the LiveFS "FixIt" CD, burning that, and booting from it. That should allow use of either /bin/sh or /rescue/sh from the LiveFS CD and run fsck on all of your filesystems.

If all else fails, restore from backup.
