I find that fdasd /dev/dasd_ shows "Linux Native" for a dasdfmt disks
and it shows "Linux LVM" LVM after you do a pvcreate command to the disk.

I haven't read all the answers, but usually it works fine (when it is a mount

mount /usr
mount /var
mount /opt
and so on.
and after enough mounts just: /etc/init.d/sshd start
and you can login as usual and fix the problem

Anyone having tried the mvsdad driver for read z/OS dasd directly ?
I have tried download the SLES11 version from
http://www.mvsdasd.org/download.html
it does not work, some corrupt file here it seams.
So I downloaded the source, but gets errors ( of course, why should it be
simple ;)

There have been a couple of other methods that work but this is by far the
simplest and it was user data that I had the problem with. I'll give this a
try, thanks.

I recently had a typo in fstab for a new file system I tried to add and my
system would not come back up. Thanks to everybody for helping me out and
getting my system back without a major recovery effort.
Any reason why zLinux dies when it finds a bad entry in fstab even though the

If /etc/fstab has markers which say "this is important", then it dies.
That is common for Unix/Linux/POSIX.
Specifically, if you have the troubled FS set to be checked (last
column something other than "0"), and the check fails, the system will
fall back to maint mode. Filesystems which fail to

For anyone that has, I hope their auditors never find out.

This might be influenced by those numbers at the end of the fstab entry..
The last one indicates whether fsck should be run against it. If yours is
0, then that should prevent Linux from requiring it there.
I'm not sure how badly you mucked up the syntax though...As others have

Thank you everyone for your confirmation and instructions. It threw off our
Linux Support person when YaSt wouldn't keep the LVM option on the disk as
he was doing the install. Following the suggestions we were able to
configure it and it is working now.

"mount -a" might be easier.

I would bet it just has to time out. I know NFS and SMBFS can hold on for
quite a while before giving up the ghost.

For mounting network filesystems this can be true... but for a local disk
(which I'm pretty sure is the case here) - you are either put into a
recovery shell or it won't come up at all and you have to recover by other
means. Depends on what the error in your fstab is and what fsck option you
have

Implementing the driver isn't an auditable offense.. gaining access to the
