When a filesystem is automatically remounted read-only by the operating
system, it's because serious trouble is ahead. Rebooting to remount
read-write seems a recipe for disaster unless you have corrected the
problem.

This may be a Linux kernel bug, a disk/cable/controller failure, or
something else.
