My system suddenly froze after initially trying to reboot routinely & properly. I had just before corrected a spelling error in etc/rc.conf & saved the file. I Therefore had to close the system down improperly and initially I was getting a seemingly continuous stream of what looked like a system attempt to remove PID's from swap. After 5mins or so I formed the impression that what I was seeing was a circular maintenance routine, but one that was going nowhere. So I closed down improperly again.
The result is that I now have a system that only gets part way through booting with the dismount warning every time.
Is there any way I can attempt to save the system?
I notice that there a number of options to boot but I don't feel confident to use them, lacking any experience, as I do, with this particular problem.
Help would be appreciated. Thank You.
