This should be reopened.

This is a potentially serious regression that broke on my machine
upgrading from 14.10 to 15.04.   The way in which it broke left me
looking at a shell that told me despite my FS being mounted "rw"
according to "mount", all commands were failing because of "Read-only
file system".

It is in no way intuitive why it happens, nor the solution that adding
an entry to /etc/fstab for the root would fix it, given that that fstab
entry was not required in 14.10 and prior.

I'm fortunate enough to be experienced enough to find this report and
execute follow the steps, many non-power/novice users will not be.

This issue could have been avoided altogether by implementing a post-
install check that examines the fstab and corrects the issue or at least
notifies the user to correct the issue before rebooting.
