I'm not sure if that's the right approach. If somebody mounts /boot ro,
they usually do it for a reason and might not want it silently
overridden by rpm scripts. Besides, if you change the disks mounted in
%pre, you should roll it back in %post -- honour admin's decision of not
having /boot mounted permanently.

You need /boot mounted rw to install FHS, kernel and grub. You need /usr
mounted rw to install virtually any package. An admin should know this.
