During boot up, Linux performs various activities (can't remember the
whole list) that would be much safer if the root partition was mounted
read-only. When it is done, it remounts the root as R/W.
There is nothing to worry about with this. You don't have to make it
mount R/W, it already is by the time booting is over.
