bvc Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 I did this last week for the first time, I used the mount your partitions option (I think that's what it was called) then I used vi instead of vim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezroller Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 yeah. you have to mount all of your partitions under /mnt, then you can work on them like normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 I'm not positive, but after mounting your partitions if you still can't use vim, try chroot /mnt That should do it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvlad Posted October 21, 2002 Author Share Posted October 21, 2002 Thx guys, it worked with chroot /mnt and it also works with vi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
