If by "mount my system" you mean "mount partition 1 on my computer's
internal IDE hard drive", and by "root" you mean "root user" (not "root
directory"), and by "rescue system" you mean "a bootable CD with utilities",
then: "mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/temp". Make sure (1) that is the disk
you want to use; (2) that is the partition you want to mount; and (3)
/mnt/temp (or wherever you choose to mount it) actually exists. Mkdir it if
it doesn't (or choose a different place).
