[comp.sys.next] fstab

Hi,
    Today I have deleted fstab accidently and the system won't boot
normally. In fact, what I have done is creating a new fstab and renameing
it to fstab.new but forgetting to rename old fstab back. So fstab is
missing and the computer can no longer function.
    When I boot it into single user mode, the file system becomes
read-only and there is no way I can rename my old fstab back. There
seems no way to get it to work and I don't really want to rebuild the
harddisk just because I miss one file. Did anyone know how can you put
the file system back to read-write or how can you let the boot process
use different fstab file?
    Thanx for any help!
