[syslinux] mbr problem with pxelinux

I am having a problem where my newly cloned system (created using
pxelinux) boots up with the filesystem mounted read-only. It is then
impossible to log in.
This is what I have done so far:
I boot the server using pxelinux. Then there is a script in the
ramdisk that is be used to create the filesystem (ext2), mount
everything up, get a tar file containing all files from an identical
system, and untar the files. Then I installed the bootoader to the
MBR using lilo -M /dev/hdc.
As far as I can tell, there are no settings in lilo.conf or fstab to
set the filesystem to be mounted read-only.
Any help is appreciated.
