Every reboot, I receive the following message: === Remounting remaining filesystems readonly... [!!] Give root password for maintenance (or type Control-D for normal startup): === What's wrong? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
i dont know, you neglected to provide very much information ... post `emerge info` and your /etc/fstab
I didn't know what exactly to provide :) However, the system used for compiling just died (fan error) and I need to wait until at least next week until I get a replacement for the fan, sorry... Maybe someone else could try emerge "=fam-1.7.0"?
I get the same problem ever since I updated baselayout when a new version got marked stable the other day. For me it doesn't happen every time, but quite often. It happens when rebooting or shutting down. I'm using the latest stable baselayout-1.8.6.13 I've heard other reports of this, a friend who just installed gentoo and here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=102746 Here's by /etc/fstab and emerge info # <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass> # NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts. /dev/hdc1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 1 /dev/hdc5 / reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/hdc6 /usr reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/hdc7 /home reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/hdc2 swap swap sw,pri=0 0 0 /dev/hda5 swap swap sw,pri=0 0 0 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,users,ro 0 0 /dev/hda1 /mnt/mandrake ext3 noatime 0 0 /dev/hda7 /mnt/mandrake/home ext2 noatime 0 0 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbpen vfat noauto,users 0 0 #server:/home/duncan /home/duncan/server nfs noauto,user,soft /dev/loop/0 /home/duncan/personal/private/0 ext2 user,exec,noauto,rw,loop 0 0 /home/duncan/personal/private/cryptfile1 /home/duncan/personal/private/1 ext2 user,exec,noauto,rw,loop,encryption=aes-192 0 0 # NOTE: The next line is critical for boot! none /proc proc defaults 0 0 # glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for # POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink). # (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will # use almost no memory if not populated with files) # Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this: none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 emerge --info Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.6.2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.2 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.13 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.7.7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://212.219.56.162/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.2/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.3/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.7/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/ http://194.83.57.11/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow X aalib alsa apache2 apm avi berkdb cdr crypt cups encode foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib java jpeg libg++ libgda libwww mad maildir mikmod mmx mozilla mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python quicktime readline sdl slang spell sse ssl svga tcpd tetex truetype x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib"
you sure it's baselayout and not reiserfs ? the was a bug with 3.6.12 that caused errors when remounting
I'm not using ReiserFS at all, I have a NT 5.1 partition, an ext3 and one swap partition. I'm quite new to Gentoo, so please let me know what information you need to debug, so I can attach them to this issue. :)
If that happens, what does 'cat /proc/mounts' give you?
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 /dev/root /tmp/.initrd ext2 rw 0 0 none /tmp/.initrd/dev devfs rw 0 0 /dev/hda2 / ext2 rw,noatime 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 none /dev devfs rw 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 none /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0
Possible to try without using an initrd (just for testing) ?
Anyone else reading this bug who could test it? The machine I have is currently used for another work, so I cannot recompile the kernel at this moment. But thanks for the tip anyway, I will try it out the next time! :)
Seems to be solved with latest non-~ Portage.
