Usually the kernel will remount the partition read-only when there has
been an I/O error accessing it. Have a look at your logs (unless the
logs are on the same partition...)

One question: did it say "file" read only or "file system" read only?
My attempt at an explanation would expect the second.

In that case, you better make a file system check before mounting...

And keep an eye on your hardware :-)
