Forced FSCK[solved]

fsck failed. Please repair manually and reboot. Please note that the root file system is currently mounted read-only.
To remount it read-write:

        # mount -n -o remount,rw /

CONTROL-D will exit from this shell and REBOOT the system.

Getting the above error when booting into my new arch system, with ext3.

Re: Forced FSCK[solved]

Read-only is normal for the boot sequence.

Fsck must complete its function of system check efore the boot will finish.

If you get a statement after fsck has completed its check, hit control d and let it reboot again.

Re: Forced FSCK[solved]

Thanks for the response.

Turns out my old IDE HD that's been collecting dust finally bit it. Sticking a sata in this machine and reinstalling solved it.
