@kdfrawg The only trying part of the day was talking a French-Canadian through mounting a logical volume in single-user mode and running fsck on it.
# vgscan —mknode
# vgchange -ay
# fsck.ext3 -y /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00.
Relaying that was a lot harder than it looks.
Edit: Having them read the output of the second command off so I knew what to have them type in the third one is the bugger.
