Hello,

I do not know much about mounting...but can I use this command to remount
the file system so it is not in read only mode?

mount -no remount,rw /
or
mount -o remount,rw /

not sure what the exact command is..

Is this the next smart step to proceed with?

run the command 'dmesg' and see what it says.

it is likely that there is some sort of error with your file system and the
kernel has marked the file system read-only to protect it from damage.

The root cause of this sort of thing is usually hardware failure.
since you are using md, also run a 'cat /proc/mdstat' to see what state the
system thinks the disks are in.

of course be paranoid, and take a good backup.
