Yes, that worked, I just had to change rw back to ro in grub`s entries because it complains root fs must be mounted first as read only before remounting. Just for curiosity, in a normal linux intallation, who is responsible for doing this remounting as read and write?

It varies, but it usually happens in an rc script, early in the init process. On my Debian box, I see it gets remounted in /etc/rcS.d/S07checkroot.sh, after setting up udev and some other kernel services.
