boot: read-only filesystem error

Hi,

when booting this happens with 3 different arch installs.

INIT: version 2.06 booting
/etc/rc.d/functions: line 22: /dev/null: Read-only file system

/etc/rc.d/functions has this on line 22: TERM_COLORS="$(/bin/tput colors 2>/dev/null)"

I'm guessing I've done something bad at some point...
Any thoughts?

Re: boot: read-only filesystem error

The normal boot sequence reports read/only until the kernel and support are fully loaded.

This prevents any error intro by writes inadvertent or otherwise....

Ok, so you mean that's supposed to happen on all newly installed systems?
I assume no, is there something I can do to fix it?

I've got the same "problem". Anyone got a solution? It looks a bit sloppy.
