Ouch. That sounds like serious trouble during startup to me. Probably the root filesystem was not mounted read+write, usually either caused by the filesystem checker running into trouble that it cannot correct automatic, or by misconfiguration of the filesystem table or udev. Could you post the content of /var/log/messages that corresponds with previous startup?
