as root:

mount -t ext2 /dev/hda8 /mnt/hda8
chroot /mnt/hda8
mount /proc
mount -t sysfs none /sys
mount: fs type sysfs not supported by kernel

It really seems to hate trying to mount sysfs :(  Is it possible that
it just dislikes me trying to use Knoppix to fix the problem?  Maybe
try another live distro?

Kind regards,

Julian
