Hello,
after restarting a server,
it didn't start and restarting in single user mode didn't help. the server reports that several low level services start and stops after that so how to regain control of the machine?

this is nothing to to do with LFS, and will be moved shortly.

You need to give us a LOT more information. Actual errors and descriptions. "it didn't help" is not useful.

will this is all the information available and thanks for the reply, i read on the internet that there is some type of recovery mode but i don't know if that is relevant

if you boot to the installation media, there will be a rescue option on the boot menu.
