fstab on a read only filesystem on linux repair mode

When linux is on a single user and repair model, as the filesystem is read only you cannot edit the files.

Here I am going to show you how to edit /etc/fstab when at Fedora “Repair filesystem” prompt.

You might get Read-Only error when you try to change the fstab file, to save it try wq! on vi :

Repair filesystem # mount -w -o remount /
Repair filesystem # vi /etc/fstab
