Good Day All,
I have a serious problem on one of my servers running CentOS 5!!!
The problem started this way,
I wanted to store some data under /home and I got an error message saying it is in the read only mode
So I rebooted the machine,
Then I see this serious error messages at boot time (I am unable to boot)
Here is the Error Message!!!
*** Error occurred during the file system check.
*** Dropping you to shell; the system will reboot
This sounds like you have a serious disk/controller problem.
I would try booting the system with a Knoppix liveCD (or other livecd of your preference), which should allow you to look at the hard disk to analyze the problem(s), run fsck if fdisk shows that the partition table is intact.
