I was trying to unmount /, so that I can use defrag to optimize the HD.
However, booting from the boot disk, entering single user mode still does

i could not possibly agree more with Eric on this one. People are so
spoon-fed on GUIs that tell you how to do everything. When you use something
like Linux you need basic computer knowledge or you learn the hard way. It
isn't "easy" but it's fun once you get used to it.
