Ben,
thank you for your help. Now with your suggestion, I don't
receive error messages executing any scripts but... the /dev/hda1
is still mounted read-only. Of course I am not able to umount /
and to remount it read-write. I only add that running 
fdisk /dev/hda 
I receive:

Device      Flag     Start     End    Id     Blocks
/dev/hda1      r         0    8322    83    4194288   
/dev/hda2             8322    8842    82     262080

Thank for your help.
