from inside the recovery boot and installed it after a chroot or with
--root= on rpm.
Yesterday I rendered this laptop unbootable by broken code I added to
the iwlwifi driver sources: I was back up in five minutes thanks to
the recovery boot, deleting the driver and rebooting into the kernel
so I could fix it and go on.
That experience, like each time I use the recovery boot, left me
feeling grateful for the feature and empowered, that even with a half
trashed system I can force it back to life. Whereas without it, you
were left feeling very different.
same here wanted to install d80211 and deleted all my kernel modules by
acciedent (only noticed after reboot; only one kernel installed) I
reinstalled the kernel in rescue mode and the system was up and running
again in less then 10 min.
