Re: (newbee alert) cant save changes to edited scripts.



reinstalled using *normal* partitioning, ignoring the sparc way.  still has
the same result, system will boot and run, just mounts root as -ro.  we are
not amused.  dmesg sez nothing at all about mounting -ro, or i would have
caught it sooner ( at least i tell myself that).  kern.log reveals that root
is mounted -ro but does not state a reason or even mention errors.  this
makes absolutely no sense.  the /var partition is now @ sda3 and it
mounts -rw.  why does it insist on / being -ro?
