Alternatively you can go there without actually rebooting. Just "telinit 1" 
will do. Once you're in single-user, there's nothing running that'll need a 
writeable root FS anyway. You can then procceed remounting read-only, check 
the FS, remount read-write and go back to normal use by exiting the shell.
