This usually happen when '/etc/init.d/boot.localfs' runs 'fsck' and it returns failure. The message would be this one: | echo "fsck failed. Please repair manually and reboot. The root" | echo "file system is currently mounted read-only. To remount it" | echo "read-write do:" But if it is the '/' partittion, and it is a reiserfs one, then you need to boot the rescue CD and fsck it - or run 'reiserfsck'. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
