man mount
have you tried remounting it as rw. specify when you call mount to remount it as rw. otherwise explore the riserfsck more.
Something to try.. If nothing else, backup the data and reformat
I have 2 disks in my system. Disk 1(hda) has windows and SuSE7.3 installed on it. Disk 2(hdb) has SuSE 8.0. When booting SuSE8.0 it mounts the partition hdb7 ("/") as readonly. This was not the case until the system was rebooted last week. Prior to the reboot I could read and write to the partition. I was out of town when I started having connectivity issues and had the wife reboot the machine. I had ownly been accessing the machine for email and file storage and don't know what has changed. When booting into SuSE 7.3 I can mount hdb7 as rw. I believe the problem has something to do with the boot process but am not sure. Mike the
partition.

Reiserfsck has been run successfully and the system is still mounting / as readonly. I have found that the /boot directory is
empty

Any guidence will be greatly appreciated, Mike
