that's the default behavior for any unix system if I'm not wrong. it gets remounted as RW after it passes fsck. if the system finished booting into its final runlevel (2 or 3, not single mode) and still runs with / as RO then something is really wrong. If you are in single luser mode (runlevel 1) then it might be for a good reson, but you can use: mount -o remount,rw / > the exams and I don't have time.

So, where can I find a list of all the installed packages by apt? if you didn't kill your /var/ you can use "dpkg --get-selections" to see what is/was the status of the package database. -- The new danger Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
