Well, the messages themselves are not a problem...depending upon what |
| 16 |
happens. The kernel normally mounts the root filesystem read-only |
| 17 |
initially. The boot processes is then supposed to remount the |
| 18 |
filesystem read-write. In gentoo, this happens in the checkroot init |
| 19 |
script, which should be part of boot (rc-update -s | grep checkroot) |

Is your system failing to boot? |
