Bug#513911: release-notes: wrong mount point for root partition in rescue mode
Package: release-notes
Tags: patch
Chapter 4.8.2.2 describes, how to fix a broken grub configuration
while using the rescue mode of debian-installer.
I read there:
"Now you should have shell access as user root on your root file system
mounted on /."
This is not correct, the root file system will be mounted into /target.
See this
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch08s07.html
chapter in the installation guide about rescue mode. At the bottom
of the page is mentioned, that:
"The root file system you selected will be mounted on the /target directory."
Patch is attached.
Greetings
Holger

Now you should have shell access as user <literal>root</literal> on your root

+ file system mounted on <filename>/target</filename>. You need access
to the contents of <filename>/boot</filename>, <filename>/sbin</filename>
and <filename>/usr</filename> directories. If these
directories need to be mounted from other partitions, do so
