You could try the following (untested -- there might be good reasons for
not doing the following, but if there are I can't think of them. It
might be enough to get you booted off of your disc again).


1. try booting single user from CD-ROM
2. fsck the root partition and mount it on /mnt (or /a or whatever).
3. Use "/usr/sbin/devfsadm -r /mnt" to create device nodes using /mnt as
	the root partition.
4. "touch /mnt/reconfigure" and "umount /mnt"
5. reboot the system.

Good luck,
Chris
