Have you tried this without errors? IMO / has to be writable - since
/etc is on it, with configuration files that change. (eg, /etc/mtab is
written at the end of the boot process). Also, I don't what happens to
/dev/* if you mount / ro - there are a bunch of stuff like some_command
&> /dev/null in the sysinit scripts.
Similarly, for /boot, I have this in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit:
cat > /boot/kernel.h << EOF
<snipped>
EOF
This will fail if /boot is ro.
