Yes. This also ocurred using 2.6.0-test2-mm5. I can remount it manually, but that's a little annoying. When it prompts for the password for maintenance, I enter it then issue: mount -o remount,rw /dev/root /. I've also used /dev/hde7 to reference the device when remounting it and had no problem. I was intending to try to get the the root (no pun intended) of the matter sometime in the next few days. I spent quite a while searching through the forums, finding no solution there. -rex -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
