I tried it and was unable to remount read-only or unmount any of my ext2 partitions, even after changing to single-user mode. I got "device is busy" messages from umount, even on a partition which had only been mounted read-only. Normally this only happens when a file is open for writing. I tried again, booting with init=/bin/sh:
# mount -n /usr -o ro # umunt -n /usr umount: /usr: device is busy ___ Trevor Johnson
