I needed to edit something on the root fs, but /rescue/vi wouldn't work, it complained about not finding the terminal database. I saw some mention in the archives from June about fixing this, though I don't think anything has been comitted yet. In the meantime, how can I run /rescue/vi without /usr? thanks, Thomas -- N.J.
