A couple of days ago I had a VERY frustrating time with Knoppix.

I was trying to fix GRUB, but I kept on getting a "read only file system" error.
Something I was surprised to see as root.

From http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/FaqRescue

I see maybe it needed to be remounted:
"mount -o dev /mnt/hda1", if its already mounted, you'll have to clear the "nodev" flag: "sudo mount -o remount,dev /mnt/hda1"
All the same. My internet connection was down with the unbootable machine. So how was I am going to get that info?

In the end I fixed the problem with a Debian Woody bootdisk. You see Debian bootdisk has a rescue option. And this is what I would love to see on Knoppix.

A cheatcode/option for a :
