From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: If you use an fstab entry like /dev/hda1 / ext3 rw,acl 1 1 mkinitrd will create a ramdisk using those options. If the system boots using that initrd it will mount / read-write, letting switchroot fail (I guess that it's switchroot). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. replace "defaults" for root partition in fstab with e.g. "rw" 2. create a new initrd 3. boot system using new initrd Actual Results: System doesn't start up as expected, leaving you in filesystem repair mode. Expected Results: up and running system Additional info:
