Fix your boot to not use /dev/root, but an actual partition number.
What's happening is that /dev/sda3 is *both* your /mnt/target *and* your root filesystem. So when you start rm -rf'ing, you trash your root filesystem and things go pear-shaped. [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
