The whole file system went read only. I did a reboot (shutdown -r now). But fedora did not reboot normally but went into this other run level. The message was that it appeared to have been shutdown incorrectly (I used shutdown -r now) and I should run fsck. fsck found a number of errors which it fixed. Everything is working fine now, but I don't know why the whole file system went read only. Previous to this problem I had mounted a Windows 2000 drive using, mount -t smbfs ...., but had mis-typed the switches to the command, but that
that would do it! Always check and re-check commands to mount. Never mount a drive as root - find the correct commands, edit /etc/fstab as root, exit back to a normal user and then issue the mount command.
was the previous day, and I don't think that would affected it and caused the errors.
Yes, it probably did. These errors may not show up until the next boot. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk/ http://www.dclug.org.uk/ http://www.isbn.org.uk/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/isbnsearch/ http://www.biglumber.com/x/web?qs=0x8801094A28BCB3E3
