Hello Gentoo users,
I just can't fsck my root device because my Gentoo system don't allow me
to remount it as readonly (mount -o ro,remount /dev/hda1). A rw-mounted
device is unsafe to be fsck -ed. (AFAIK).
When I go to tty1, login as root, do these:
killall kdm, then init 1. It goes to runlevel 1 (maintenance level). But
I don't have to type my root password in the end (on other distros I had
to). I can unmount my /boot and /home partitions but I just can't
remount my root device to be readonly. (Linux says it is busy.) What
should I do with this?
1.) Should I edit my Grub menu.lst to make a new entry with "single ro"
kernel parameteres?
2.) Of course I can fsck from (for example) a LiveCD (like Gentoo
minimal cd), but at the present I don't have any of these.
3.) Other solution?
Thanks in advance!
pm.: I just love my Gentoo system :)
