It looks like a Harddisk issue. Check if you have 'Journal has aborted' line in /var/log/messages or 'dmesg' output. If you look at the lines above "Journal has aborted" line, they can tell you what happened and why read-only remount occurred. Also, Use any SMART utility to see if you have Status=Fail on 'raw-read-error-rate', 'seek-error-rate', 'reallocated-sector-count' attributes.
