boot problem - readonly file systems

boot problem - readonly file systems

2006-11-28       - By Mikhail Kruk

Hello,

I had a system with RedHat 2.1 and RedHat 3 installed in dual-boot mode.
 Something happened to it and both /boot partitions are wiped out.  I'm
trying to revive at least the RedHat 3 into a bootable state.  I've
reinstalled grub and the kernel and it boots, but for some reason the
file systems remains mounted in read-only mode after init is executed.
I can type in the root password and remount the / and /boot as rw and
then init 3 succeeds, however the system is still not quite happy, for
instance the permissions on /dev/* seem to be incorrect.
What might cause this?  At least the problem N1: the filesystems mounted
read only?

My grub.conf is like this:

title linux
  root (hd0,4)
  kernel /vmlinuz-2 (See http://nuz-2.ora-code.com).4.21-4.EL ro root=/dev/hda6
  initrd /initrd-2 (See http://trd-2.ora-code.com).4.21-4.EL.img

Thanks!
