Thank you.

fsck /dev/hda5   causes it to lock up.  But upon:
fsck.ext3 /dev/hda5 
it says "clean"

So I gather the partition upon which root should eventually be
mounted is fine.  But there is something wrong with the root
filesystem when it is mounted wherever it is mounted while it
is still read-only.
