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?

Marko
