Hi all,

my drive crashed, and I have backups, but the latest data is still on the
drive.  I can boot with a fixit disk, but the fixit disk doesn't have the
device for the /usr partition I need to access.

Can I use the fixit CD instead?  Is there an easier way to access the
partition?  I just need to mount /usr long enough to get my data.
