   	Boot up with a rescue disk or flash drive such as Knoppix and use the   
   partition editor to correct your error,   
      	If you are using Mandriva and can assign /tmp to another partition   
   it should move the content of /tmp to   
   that new partition but it may take a while to do that while booting   
   up.   
   	I happen to know about the copying to the assigned drive   
   because I used Mandriva to create various partitions after I made   
   a similar error and was surprised at the automatic copying.  I had   
   expected to be working on that myself.   
   	You should be able to correct even the bad files from a   
   rescue system like Knoppix,  Takes some patience to be sure you   
   are working in the right directories and partitions.   
      
   	Good luck
