This is probably what it should do: remount readonly on errors. > # mount -o remount,rw / > mount: block device /dev/hda2 is write-protected, mounting read-only Found the error again, remounted even before mount returned. > Does anybody know whether this means: the disk is about to die.... Something like that. The short term $0.01 is to reboot singleuser, run badblocks, and adjust the /etc/fstab line to `errors=continue'. This is what I did few weeks ago. There are surely better ways but this kinda works. Don't trust the disk much from now on--if you have valuable data, relocate them. -- Jan Minar "Please don't CC me, I'm subscribed." x 7
