iMac g4 problem

There are multiple problems with this computer of which it would be foolish of me to go onto the various mailing lists. I have already made that social faux paux in the past twenty four hours.

First, from single user mode, fsck -fy does not work.

SecondtSecond,X server will not start.

I am limited in my tools because my friends are not familiar with the underpinnings of Unix, BSD, or Linux.

I understand and know that there are a lot of familiarities between FreeBSD and MacOSX.

They do not have the equipment - such as external USB drives - to install another system to their sole laptop.

Thanks for reading this
