I can boot in single user mode.
Unable to type in single user mode.
(first time I booted this way was unable to type, powered down and powered up and was able to do so after that).
I tested something (deleted the .AppleSetupDone) and confirmed it works.

Now when I boot in single user mode again I'm stuck, unable to type.

The last lines are:
To mount the root device as read-write:
$ /sbin/fsck -fy /
$ /sbin/mount -uw /
To boot hte system:
$ exit
localhost:/ root# AppleYukon2: Marvell Yukon Gigabit Adapter ......
apleYukon2: .....


I am unable to type the /sbin/fsck -fy / command
