You can add "rescue/enable=true" to the d-i command line to enable
resscue mode, or simply select the "Rescue mode" option from the d-i
boot menu (which is just an easier way to do that!). It will start d-i
as normal, then ask you to identify and mount the root device of the
system you're trying to fix.
