[lug] Read-only filesystem

[Gary Hodges]

Old machine:  Kubuntu 5.10
New machine:  Kubuntu 6.10 AMD64

I recently put together a new computer and moved a couple drives from my 
old machine to the new one.  When copying data to one of the disks I 
will eventually get an error that says in part "cannot create regular 
file" "read-only file system."  Some data are copied to the disk before 
the error, though not the same amount each time.  If I umount/mount the 
disk some (or sometimes all) the copied data are not there.  The other 
disk works fine.  Both worked fine in the old machine.  Here are the 
relevant parts from fstab:

/dev/sdb1       /data1          reiserfs defaults        0       2
/dev/sdc1       /data2          reiserfs defaults        0       2

sdc1 is the disk in question.  I copied the above from my old fstab 
file, though the disks were sdc1 and sdd1 respectively in the old machine.
