I use the GRML HD installed version on my laptop (X20); I ran an apt-get upgrade yesterday (monday), which seemed to work alright, but when I rebooted the system later on, the root filesystem is only mounted readonly, and systems like the /prov directory aren't hooked up (the runlevel says "2").
[...]
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong? Were there some bad package in yesterdays upgrades?

Boot grml from live-cd and run 'dpkg --list file-rc' on your harddisk system (chroot into it). If it returns 0.8.8 please run
wget http://grml.org/repos/file-rc_0.8.7_all.deb dpkg -i file-rc_0.8.7_all.deb
and reboot your system - this should fix the problem (if it is related to the file-rc bug in the Debian package). The old file-rc version stays in the grml repository preventing users from broken Debian upgrades until the problem is solved (version 0.8.10 should be that). Seems you hit the few hours were I wasn't aware of this Debian problem (thanks for pointer, tube), sorry.
