Hi,<br>
I've taken the compact flash and did a fsck -f (filesystem was clean)<br>
left filesystem mounted rw about an hour and remounted ro without<br>
trouble, seems fsck helped :)<br>
thank you!<br>

I was ultimately obliged to boot the Voyage SDK iso, run a filesystem check to repair the Voyage installation on my hard drive, and then boot from hard disk again. At the end everything was reasonably OK - I did lose a few inodes - but I could remountrw/remountro once again without the annoying / is busy message.<br>
