Dead server, need to restore few files

Hi,

One of my Linux server running Redhat version 3 is dead. I already build the new server but I need to get few of the license files from the old server. Currently, I booted the old server using the CDROM. But when I go to /mnt/sysimage/var, I don't see any of files? I also went to /mnt/sysimage/usr and I don't see any thing.

Not sure what I am doing wrong. Please help.

Thanks.
