Hi Steffen,

I try to mount the partition in dom0 and however this is what the error message said:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
dom0:~# mount -t ext3 /dev/server/centos /mnt/temp
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/server/centos,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so

dom0: dmesg | tail
...............
VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev dm-14.
...................
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have got a wrong entry in /etc/fstab inside the domU system which cause of not booting properly. Is there anyway I can do to mount this /dev/server/centos in dom0?

Thanks!
James

You don't have to.
Just mount the partition in dom0 and repair there!

Regards,
Steffen
