Hi Jgt,

Thanks for the reply.
1. Re-installing the system: Honestly, hope it'll be the last option
2. Install a new server: hmmm, I just hope I can figure out the problem with install a new server and then mount the original disk and hopefully fix the problem with original disk
3. Complete system backup: *sigh* I worried not, the system is manage by other person

Errr how about recovery diskette ? do you think it's possible to boot the system with recovery diskette and then try to fix the problem ?

For now, I'm looking for any solution so I can enter the system as a root.

Warmest Regards,
Virgani Dhirgacahya

NAME
mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem SYNOPSIS
mkfs.bfs [options] device [block-count] DESCRIPTION
mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device). The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used. OPTIONS
-N, --inodes number Specify the desired number of inodes (at most 512). If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked depending on the size of the partition. -V, --vname label Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used. -F, --fname name Specify the filesystem name. I have no idea if/where this is used. -v, --verbose Explain what is being done. -c This option is silently ignored. -l This option is silently ignored. -h, --help Display help text and exit. -V, --version Display version information and exit. Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option. EXIT CODES
The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong. SEE ALSO
mkfs(8) AVAILABILITY
The mkfs.bfs command is part of the util-linux package and is available from https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/. util-linux July 2011 MKFS.BFS(8)
