[CentOS] Re: Root filesystem is suddenly mounted read-only

I faced the same error message yesterday. While reboot, fsck will prompt to fix the lost chain error. Back to normal after all the lost chain fixed.

This is very strange. Everything was running fine Friday night. This morning I walk into work and find that my root file system (which is actually the only filesystem besides /boot) is not writable. Yet mount thinks it's mounted read/write:

# mount /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw) [snip] # touch foo touch: cannot touch `foo': Read-only file system

Anyone else seen this? This is on a relatively recently fresh CentOS 4.3 install.
