CentOS / Redhat: Chroot And Mount Raid Or Actual Hard Disk From Rescue Kernel / CD

last updated June 24, 2010 in RedHat and Friends

Something is wrong with my RHEL networking configuration so I booted using my ISPs remote rescue kernel mode to fix my system. How do I mount and chroot into actual installation to fix the problem? How do I boot from any Live Linux CD and chroot into /dev/sda1 or /dev/md0 to fix the problem or recover the data?
