My problem does occur in /etc/init.d/checkroot, but the checking
of the filesystem goes fine, it's the remounting that fails. The
output looks like this:
* Checking root file system
Reiserfs super block in block 16 on 0x304 of format 3.6 with standard journal
Blocks (total/free) 15526822/2297961 by 4096 bytes
Files system is cleanly unmounted
Filesystem seems mounted read-only. Skipping journal replay
Checking internal tree..finished [ok]
* Remounting root files system read/write...
* Root filesystem could not be mounted read/write:( [!!]
The code which does this in /etc/init.d/checkroot comes right after the
check:
# Should we mount root rw ?
if mount -vf -o remount / 2> /dev/null | \
awk '{ if ($6 ~ /rw/) exit 0; else exit 1; }'
then
ebegin "Remounting root filesystem read/write"
mount / -n -o remount,rw &>/dev/null
if [ "$?" -ne 0 ]
then
eend 2 "Root filesystem could not be mounted read/write:("
/sbin/sulogin ${CONSOLE}
else
eend 0
fi
fi
So that "mount /" command is failing. Maybe I will learn more by removing
the "&>/dev/null" from the end of the mount command.
