Thank you for the thoughts so far.

"Recovery Mode" has a "single" parameter on the boot command line, and
claims to be running in Single User mode, but everything is mounted and
running.  

I can't umount /var, for instance, because rsyslog is running.


This is a machine in California, so the idea of a bootable CD isn't
really practical.  B-)

Hmmmm.  Actually, that might work, because I can change the drive
configuration in the VM definition and boot from a virtual live CD.

That might be the best answer.



Thank you,
Brian
