Same problem here. I managed workaround but wish to boot in standard fashion. Here's what I do:
On silo prompt: linux single (same complaining about fs type and read-only fs) in single mode: mount -o remount /dev/hda1 init 2 /etc/init.d/networking start (not always needed!?!) After that everything works fine untile next reboot!
