I do have a minor (I think it is) problem. I have two HDs on my system. I installed FreeBSD and it worked fine, except my second drive wasn't mounted. So I added a line to fstab as I thought I had just missed something in the install - apparently not. So to make a long story short, I now to boot into something that I can only explain as Windows Safe Mode type mode. All I want to do is remove the entry in fstab, but I can't get an editor to work as paths aren=92t set and some things aren=92t mounted. So the question is, how do I edit this fstab to remove this line, or is their a better option?
