Does mount's output concur with that?

/dev/hda2 on / type xfs (rw,ikeep)
                         ^^
			 read-write
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext2 (ro)
                              ^^
			      read-only

If it's mounted read-only, then you need to mount it with the 'rw'
option to mount it read-write. If it still doesn't work, check that the
desktop is allowed to mount it rw (according to /etc/exports on the NFS
server) and that the NFS server has been reloaded to take into account
any changes to the exports file (and then that the desktop has mounted
the NFS filesystem after the NFS server has reread any changes)

Otherwise strange and wonderful things may happen.
