Serial console says 'cant find /bin/bash'.

What are my options to get an early shell? Is it possible to add a shell option to backup menu?
If it says you've supplied the wrong password... Probably means that it's not able to read the /etc/passwd file. Odd.
You can try the serial console mode, it might work.

Unless the system's not bootable, you shouldn't need a PC.
