a few problems...
I am installing debian for the first time, and have already installed the
base system as well as selected some packages (yet to be installed). I
accidentally pushed the reboot button on my computer, and got error messages,
although it would still let me in. As I didn't know how to fix it at first,
I kept just using it unfixed a few times, having to remount the drive read/write
each time, then running dselect to select a few packages. I would then
quit dselect, and type: shutdown now and the computer would
reboot. I finally learned how to fix it (fsck /dev/hda2 while in
/), and rebooted my computer, but now all commands are useless. When I
type mount -n -o remount,rw / (in /) it says that the command can
only be used in the root directory. I also tried it in /root, /home, but
kept getting the same message. I also tried typing shutdown now
(in /)and it did not recognize the command. Please help! Also, I was wondering
how I can configure it so that I don't have to remount the drive every
time.
