Amahi / Ubuntu Stopped working....read only file system

My Amahi server no longer boots. It stops on the grub screen. If I select a boot option, it gets errors and asks my to Fix, Ignore, or Skip. I've tried fixing without any luck. It does boot to the Ubuntu login screen. If I try logging in, it stops booting.

I've pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 and logged in that way. But the system is read only. Below is a picture of my dmesg log. I'm not sure what to do to resolve this error.

Code: Select all

Please do not add such a large image.

I have removed it. If you want to post a link, that would be best.

We will try to help you figure out the issue.

EDIT: Looks like disk failure message to me.

Sorry about the image. I was expecting the forum to auto downsize it and I promptly removed it myself.

As for my Amahi server. When I boot it up, startup service fails because the hard drive is in read only mode. Do you think there could be another problem, besides a failed disk?

Possibly a corrupt partition. It does mention in the error problems with sda2. You might try doing a disk repair on it.

You will need to boot up a Live CD, mount the drive, then repair. Try this for help.
