[Divya Pasumarti]

Hello!!

    I am using Ubuntu 9.04.When i was using the gedit and at some time when i save it, it says the file is on read-only disk cannot save.so i tried rebooting it but it displays a screen with i/o errors which doesnt end.therefore i switched it off and the next i switched it on it says,"cannot open a.out stale NFS file handle" and sometimes when i reboot, it says unproper shutdown,checking drives and in the middle it switches to a screen which says, "one of the root systems is on read-only disk and to start the maintenance shell,press ctrl d after maintenance"

what is this maitenance shell and NFS file handle?how do i come out of this? how can i do this without reinstalling again?somebody please help me......

Thank you in advance!!!!!!
