Hi Brent! In single-user mode, I am able to mount / , /usr and /var. But when I do, I see a message about these partitions not having been correctly unmounted. I can run sbin/fsck, but the display shows "NO WRITE" for the slices. When I reboot, I still can't log in. Is there anything further that you can suggest?
