Fo' shizzle.
mount reveals that / is mounted read only currently, despite
the recent reboot.
I'll try a remount to rw, though I'm not too hopeful about
that. Annoyingly that box has no optical drive - and while it
should be capable of booting from USB stick, I've always
found that a bit messy, not least the BIOS fiddling that is
often required.
WTF can't you fsck a ro-mounted fs anyway?
