Locked out of system



Well I have been known to do stupid things. This is one of them.

I changed fstab to mount another drive automatically. I messed up the entry. Now the system boots to management level ((none) prompt) and makes the hard drive partitions read only.

There is no text editor available to edit fstab - assuming that I can write to the file. How do I get out of this mess.

System Pentium III dual processors
	Linux 2.4.20
	Woody 3.0
	3 1/2 floppy drive
	SCSI CDROM (No drivers loaded until system boots)
	
Any help will be appreciated
