> Is it possible to mount a 20TB XFS filesystem with a live cd?  I have this server with three partitions, 1 15GB swap, 5GB boot in ext3, and 20TB XFS for everything else.  This server will not boot because grub has gone awry on it.  I need to be able to boot into the 20TB XFS fs because I need to fix grub.  So far google has not been any help.  Any ideas?

Should be fine, has worked here.

$ grep sdb /etc/fstab
/dev/sdb1       /archive        xfs     defaults        0       2
$ df -h /archive
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1              55T   27T   29T  49% /archive
$
