Figure 10.2: Network Protocols
A shell and many other useful utilities, such as the mount program, can
be found in the /bin directory. The sbin directory contains important file
and network utilities for reviewing and repairing the file system (e.g., reis-
erfsck or e2fsck). This directory also contains the most important binaries
for system maintenance, such as fdisk, mkfs, mkswap, mount, mount, init,
and shutdown, as well as ifconfig, route, and netstat for maintaining the
network. The directory /usr/bin contains the vi editor, grep, find, less,
and telnet.
Accessing Your Normal System
To mount your SUSE LINUX system using the rescue system, use the
mount point /mnt. You can also use or create another directory. The
following example demonstrates the procedure for a system with the
/etc/fstab details shown in Example 10.4.
Example 10.4: Example /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb3 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/sdb6 /usr ext2 defaults 1 2
