Well, my understanding is that if you have a read-only filesytem, then you wouldn't be able to write anyting to it. Having a transaction log replayed on a read-only filesystem would mean that the transactions are not written. If none is written, then you can say that the journalling filesystem is not working. If it's not working, well, your system would be left in a not-quite-good state. Oki
