You need to use mount(8) with the 'remount' option to change the mount flags, and also tell mount to not try to write to /etc/mtab (since / isn't writable at that point). So the magic invocation is mount / -n -o remount,rw Make sure to remount the filesystem readonly before you power down or reboot, though. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
