Please excuse my persistence. Googling around I found that names for IDE and SATA devices were merged since Feisty (/dev/hda being treated as /dev/sda). I got this changes only after upgrading to Intrepid, and I think it's causing more troubles than benefits. I think I've set up every file: /etc/fstab, /etc/blkid.tab, /boot/grub/menu.lst, and /boot/grub/device.map but still no luck with / being mounted as read only file system. hdparm, fsck and badblocks showed no anomaly in every partition. What I really don't understand is WHY linux boots fine from recovery mode but hangs in normal mode. I've even tried setting /etc/fstab as follows
UUID=1aa321e6-1d19-4b2d-9c44-2d0da26039f7 / ext3 rw,relatime 0 1 But it is just like the ro option is being forced by something I don't know anything about, but which doesn't apply in recovery mode. -- [Intrepid] GRUB Boot mkdir / rm permission problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250189 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
