Hi,
I have read this thread and want to say that I have expirienced the same
problem.
Once, when I was loged in, one of my filesystems ( root filesystem :( )
became read-only with the same symptoms.
But results was more tragic. Almost in each directory avg. 10% of files
had incorrect attributes, owner, links, etc.
But filenames was correct. So, I was obliged to re-create root
filesystem :(
Maybe following details will help someone to solve this problem.
Best regards,
Dmitry N. Hramtsov
p.s. Details:
