fatal, made my filesystem read-only!

When Peppermint is loading, I get error messages. "Fatal" flashes on my screen. The filesystem became read-only. Maybe, because I hitted ESC when Peppermint was scanning for errors, maybe because I installed gconf-editor, which may be experimental. dmesg doesn't show any Fatal. Where are those error messages and why is Peppermint making my filesystem read-only?

I don't know the exact reason why this happens, but I had something similar happen to a low-priority server at work, using the ext4 file system. No matter how many times I ran fsck(1) on the drives, it didn't fix it.

What I did was back up the data onto another server, via scp(1) and reinstall using another file system.

Did the permissions somehow get screwed up? Take a look with a live CD. If permissions isn't the problem, I'm in over my head.
