I do not know how to view the boot log for more careful examination, since it is not mounted and I can't get to a cmd line on the 'hung sys'
Try switching to tty10 with ALT-F10. With a little bit of luck, the relevant error messages will still be there.
If they're not, I'm out of ideas, since with a read-only file system, the file boot.log won't be created. If F10 has scrolled past the errors causing the trouble, I can't think how to get at them
Hi again... Using alt-F10 I see error msg: "CLM-6006 writing inode 30496 on read-only FS" Now when the update process is 'cleaning up' in preperation for the first boot of the new code it says that it is writing this and that to the new system; I never see anything that suggests that it ISN'T writing those out. This just has to be an error in the install scripts. There must be a way to set my / (root) back to read/write from the rescue system! Anyone? .................. Help! ............ PeterB
