<PRE>Colin Guthrie &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">mageia at colin.guthr.ie</A>&gt; writes:

&gt;<i>  7. At the bootloader prompt, edit the command line and append: &quot;rw
</I>&gt;<i> rd.convertfs&quot; (without the quotes) to your command line and then boot.
</I>
Another tip: make sure your kernel command line is not too long (not
more than 256 characters).

For the record, mine was the following (already too long before adding
rd.converfs...):
BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=UUID=0496a11c-4f6d-427d-874e-f6af4f5a0b0c splash
quiet resume=UUID=67d65da4-bf8c-45eb-9228-c8701cb3a5ef acpi_osi=Linux
acpi_backlight=vendor speedboot=no i915.i915_enable_fbc=1
i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 init=/bin/systemd vga=788

The kernel is supposed to handle longer command lines (since 2.6.21?),
but it seems to be truncated by grub.
