Error in Linux at the End of Boot

When you try to mount the Linux partition, all may set well except the flash of the stated error message at the end of boot.

“Read-only file system”,


This error message may appear on your screen of Linux based system which has been using dual boot procedure with Windows like operating system. The result of this is that you can’t do any modification or writing to your files and the system may also freeze forcing you to restart the system using hard boot. This may create havoc for the users and the most relevant thing which the user thinks about is the data.


This may create a thought in the user’s mind that whether he/she would need Linux recovery or not. So for finding

out this, you need to know the reason for the same. Well the reason for this error message may be any one like:


File system corruption


Incorrect unlock addresses for an LPC flash chip


Disk failure


In case of disk failure, to prevent the hard disk from further harm, the file system is re-mounted as read only. This is an automatic case.


For checking the file system error, you need to unmount the file system first. If it can not be unmounted, being the root file system, then you can force a file system check at the next boot. If any error occurs then you may need to format the disk to rebuild the file system.


Try using the command ‘fsck’, this may help you as this command checks and repairs most of the problems related to blocks, inode structures, directory structures and so on.In case of hard disk failure better contact Linux data recovery services to get your valuable data back. In case of formatting the disk, this would create a fresh copy of the file system away from all types of errors but the threat is maintained for your data.


Formatting will delete your data and you would need to have a software help particularly called Linux data recovery software while for the disk damage these software are not helpful. Linux Recovery is quite an easy task through these software as you need not be too technically advanced with respect to using the software. You will discover that the user interface is interactive. The most effective and reliable Linux recovery software is mandatory as the wrong one can probably damage your data even more.


The user interface of this software gives you the options like File Mask and save scan which will let you avail an easy Linux data recovery. The demo version of the software, available at company’s website, will help you to judge out the ease factor and usability of the software.
