File system is suddenly read only?
Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2015 1:41 pm
Hi guys.
I'm using the official raspbian wheezy image (kernel version 3.18) on my Raspberry Pi model B. I set everything up and now run it as a headless server and SSH into the machine to do stuff. Everything ran just fine for about a week, but now I have problems. I didn't change anything inbetween.
I now get error messages on practically everything but navigating through the folder structures. From my understanding I can't do anything that requires writing to the file system. I can't create folders, can't edit files, can't even reboot or run apt-get. For the first two, I get the error message "read-only file system". I checked for the ro flag in /etc/fstab, but there is none.
I've had the exact same problem before, which I "resolved" by pulling the cord. However, the raspberry pi wouldn't boot afterwards and I had to set everything up again. I'd like to avoid doing this on a weekly basis.
Any ideas?
