I've encountered the "root is read-only and I need read-write"
problem.  My solution is the script below.

#!/bin/sh
sync
/bin/mount -o remount,rw /
/bin/mount -o remount,rw /boot

Of course you can type the commands by hand.  Since you've only got one
partition mounted and it's ro, you don't need the sync.

HTH,

David
