Hi! If you just want to access your files /usr should not be necessary. Of course basically all tools are on /usr but for plain access it's not necessary. I just checked my system and rcp for example is in /bin. You could use that to copy your files off the system. Yes, you could also use a live CD. Check out www.freesbie.org.
