Hrrrmmm... did you mount all your disks when you went into single user
mode? After you get the shell prompt you should do the following:
fsck -p
mount -a
Then go through the mergemaster steps.
If that's not the issue, I'm not sure what the problem might be. Have
you tried running mergemaster in multi-user mode (i.e., a normal boot)?
That's how I run it 80% of the time. If THAT doesn't work, we'd need a
whole lot more details to debug this.
Good luck,
Doug
