Comment 11 for bug 204133

We did some tests with Brian Murray yesterday (thanks a lot for the help), to summarize:

* Up to run-init everything seems good /host (ntfs device) is rw and /root (ext3 loopfile within ntfs filesystem) is not, which is correct since /root will have to be remounted rw by checkroot.sh later on. Remounting /root rw manually works.

* We booted with init=/bin/sh and Brian did run manually all the scripts in /etc/rcS.d. The scripts were successful and / became rw as expected.

* Yet when booting in single user mode the above mentioned errors did appear and / was ro.

Brian, feel free to correct me if the above is inaccurate.
