I always seem to take the long route around. ---- given that the OP is asking, I would think that would be a much better option for him since the rescue CD will automatically find the partitions and set them up in /mnt/sysimage for him and thus, the steps I outlined will work. Otherwise, he will have to find the partitions, create the mount point(s), mount them, chroot them and that is a lot more work.
