This is the second time I have started a post similar to this , coz the first time, I could fix it really easily but after recompiling the kernel for CRUX 2.4, and reinstalling it, the problem has reappeared.

Probably a call for Dapper Dan again. But here's my GRUB entry (no change since last install):

title           CRUX 2.4
root            (hd0,6)
kernel          /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda7 acpi=force
quiet

While here's my fstab entry (same as a working example in Ubuntu except for the sda, we use hda in CRUX):

# /dev/hda7 
UUID=119abafd-8929-486b-938b-76d8d221c868             /         reiserfs  notail                     0      1

So anyone?

If your still struggling with this one I suggest ...
1. number one candidate is kernel modules/options ... make sure you compiled the kernel with reiser fs read/write support (in the kernel not as a module).
2. check the output of
dmesg | grep mount
dmesg | grep error
and see if you get any clues about why you have a read only mount
3. check the uuid you have in fstab is correct.

Good luck and let us know how things go.
