Augusto Santos (mkhaos7) wrote : Jaunty: jfs filesystem being mounted read-only

Today, for the second time, when booting my computer (a Dell Laptop), mounted my filesystem as readonly (jfs for the matters).

The first time this happened was during aprils fool, when I couldn't get it to mount the filesystem correctly for some time (rebooted the system 5 or 6 times before it actually mounted it as r/w).

Today it happened again.
The only thing in common that i see is that, both times i was running on batteries. And when connected the power the problem got away. I can't see to find ways to reproduce it.

But I think it might be related to the fact the fsck is not ran if the system is on batteries. So, it might be that the fs gets corrupted by some reason, and on reboot its not clean, and hence mount can't remount it r/w (thou I haven't seen any message indicating this).

If any additional info needed please tell me.
