Hi My system boots, but the root partion is read only on boot up. I can mount -o remount,rw / to make it rw again, however only root can login and all other users are told that 'System boot up in progress - please wait'. This started when I made hda in my machine, which had win XP on it an ext3 filesystem and mounted it under var after copying the contents of var accross to it.
e2fsck finds no problems with my ext3 file system, however if I type mount, it tells me that / is of unknown type, instead of ext3. If I look at the disk with fdisk or parted, I'm told there are NO partitions on the disk, however cfdisk can see the correct partions. I'm guessing the two problems are related, either way - how should I best set about solving either of them. I'm guessing I've hosed something, but is there something I can do about either problem, other than setting up from scratch?
