Hello Gentoo users, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I just can't fsck my root device because my Gentoo system don't allow me |
| 4 |
to remount it as readonly (mount -o ro,remount /dev/hda1). A rw-mounted |
| 5 |
device is unsafe to be fsck -ed. (AFAIK). |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
When I go to tty1, login as root, do these: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
killall kdm, then init 1. It goes to runlevel 1 (maintenance level). But |
| 10 |
I don't have to type my root password in the end (on other distros I had |
| 11 |
to). I can unmount my /boot and /home partitions but I just can't |
| 12 |
remount my root device to be readonly. (Linux says it is busy.) What |
| 13 |
should I do with this? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1.) Should I edit my Grub menu.lst to make a new entry with "single ro" |
| 16 |
kernel parameteres? |
| 17 |
2.) Of course I can fsck from (for example) a LiveCD (like Gentoo |
| 18 |
minimal cd), but at the present I don't have any of these. |
| 19 |
3.) Other solution? |
| 20 |

Thanks in advance! |

pm.: I just love my Gentoo system :) |
