I tried that, but after I entered my /home password the boot continued
and then stopped. After waiting fifteen minutes or so I concluded
that the machine hanged.
I tried using the recovery mode from GRUB, but that hahged the machine
as well. I then tried rescue mode from the installation disk. If it
is possible to use that to put the Yes back, I could not figure it out.
What do I do now?
