Hello,
One of the CentOS 5.1 Xen guests of mine switched its root filesystem
to read-only mode a few days ago and now that try to reboot it I keep
getting errors about the root file system being in read-only mode:
# touch /x
touch: cannot touch `/x': Read-only file system
Trying to force the file system to read-write gives the following error:
# mount -o remount,rw /
mount: / not mounted already, or bad option
The file system IS, of course, mounted. Even mounting a test
filesystem from another Logical Volume works fine:
# mount /mnt/test
# df /mnt/test
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/testvg-testlv
307644536 252961820 39055248 87% /mnt/test
Here is my fstab file:
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults,noatime,data=writeback 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults,noatime,data=writeback 1 2
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/testvg/testlv /mnt/test ext3 defaults,noatime,data=writeback 0 0
Any ideas on how can I save this system without re-installing it?
Thanks,
--Amos
