[SLUG] boot time parameters (read-only)

I'm running RedHat 7.1 SeaWolf, and I'm trying to get the root
partition to mount as read-only.

At the LILO prompt I'm entering "linux ro", but nothing happens. Has
anyone else had this problem? How do I get into read-only without
trashing my hard disk for it? Would rdev parameters work? Whatever
is the easiest route. I'd like to run a bad block scan again; that's
why I want to do this.
