29 Hi Rick,
30
31 the mount line for your / looks ok to me (don't know about the commit,
32 but afaik it shouldn't cause trouble). I'm somewhat at a loss.
33 "Read-only file system" suggests that the file system driver (ext3 in
34 this case) refuses to write to /dev/hda4. This should be reflected by a
35 'ro' (for read-only) in the mount line. Instead, there is 'rw' which is
36 quite what it should be. It just doesn't fit the error message.
37
38 I guess you have made sure that /var/log exists. Type 'dmesg' and check
39 the output for messages concerning hda4 or ext3/ext2. Maybe the fs
40 driver has decided to (take a) break for some reason (like fs errors,
41 read errors or some such fancy occurrence).
42
43 C'Ya,
