Especially since it's not a case of "I Can't Access Anything" so no need for the big guns (as Serg alluded to in comments) | |

| Jun 15, 2015 at 15:31 | comment | added | Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy | @Maythux yup, still a valid solution, and that's why I've upvoted ^_0 | |
| Jun 15, 2015 at 15:30 | comment | added | Maythux | @Serg but it still a case, plus It's just another solution, I said in addition to using tty as you described he has an option of liveCd, also he has option of recovery mode... WE are talking about linux, many solutions for same problem. I don't think recommending a liveCd is a problem! | |
| Jun 15, 2015 at 15:28 | comment | added | Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy | @Maythux while technically correct, it's indeed a bit overkill , when we already have TTYs available and ssh. LiveCD solution is more applicable when you've installed coreutils (yes, I've done that before by accident) or something really got messed up. | |
| Jun 15, 2015 at 15:25 | comment | added | Maythux | @ThomasW. Why!? It's just another option? Why you considered it overkill solution?! | |
| Jun 15, 2015 at 15:24 | comment | added | Thomas Ward♦ | Overkill solution. | |
