51.7.6 Exiting the Rescue System
To exit the rescue system, first leave the shell opened by the chroot command with

command. Now change to the root directory of the rescue system and unmount the root
device of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for IBM System z installation.
Example 51.4 Unmounting the File System
SuSE Instsys suse:/mnt # cd /
SuSE Instsys suse:/ # umount /mnt
