Hi, Apologies in advance for any breaches of netiquette, I couldn't find any guidelines about submission to this forum but I'd be grateful for your help on something. My /boot filesystem is being remounted shortly after start-up as read-only. I get the following messages... journal_bmap_Ra7a5f568: journal block not found at offset 12 on ide0(3,1) Aborting journal on device ide0(3,1) ext3_abort called EXT3_fs abort (device ide0(3,1): ext3_journal_start: Detected aborted journal Remounting filesystem read-only Any ideas how I can fix this? My fstab looks like this... LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,user,kudzu,ro 0 0 /dev/hdd4 /mnt/zip auto noauto,user,kudzu,rw 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,user,kudzu,rw 0 0 thrombin:/users/ /users nfs noauto,user,exec,dev,rw,hard,intr 0 0 #/dev/hdb1 /dosc ntfs ro,umask=000 0 0 /dev/hdb2 /dosd vfat ro,umask=000 0 0 tof:/export/home/ /tof nfs noauto,user,exec,dev,rw 0 0 I'm running RH 7.3, installed from rpms so I haven't done any configuration of ext3, and haven't been able to find any documentation on how to. I discovered the problem when trying to upgrade the kernel which, obviously, can't be done with /boot mounted read-only. Curiously, I was able to use up2date to upgrade to kernel-2.4.18-5 recently without this problem. Otherwise, I haven't noticed any effects. Any advice much appreciated, John O'Brien.
