ORBIT-USER: Queries regarding mac filtering on sandboxes

[Sachin Ganu]

I saw that happen to me too recently..If you look at the
/etc/fstab..there will be a
error-remount ro kind of option against the partition.. I manually
edited it to "defaults"

and then rebooted..

Worked for me..

However I have no idea why it occured in the first place..(and whether
my solution is the right one?)
