If he has made bash non-executable then I don't see how this will work either.

I doubt the box will ever boot since /etc/inittab calls /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
and the first line of sysinit is:

#!/bin/bash

or

#!/bin/sh

It is probably time to break out the alternative boot media and fix the file
permissions...

Two questions Alan:

1) What dist. are you running?

2) Is /bin/sh a hard link to /bin/bash? On my Mandrake boxes it is a soft
link. (ls -i will show the inode number of the file)
