Question

I have a machine that won't boot completely because, it tells me, it
can't mount an NFS partition.  Problem is it just hangs there, so I
can't get into the machine to change anything.

The question is : Is there a way to boot up into "safe mode"  so that I
can at least read the error logs or something. ?  slight panic, but Ilm
not screaming yet

Thanks
