What i have found is if i boot with the Arch boot cd the fsck both "/ and /home " it will boot fine but like this morning it has booted but with / mounted ro which means i can not do any updates another time it will be /home that comes up ro but there is no problem to be found with the disc itself , I am wondering if it is an SATA problem again . I have had too many problems with those stupid crappy designed sata data cables , i have never seen such a pile of puke as the SATA connection design and whoever designed and ratified needs to be hung drawn and slaughtered.
