 When mounting an ext3 filesystem, the following option are accepted:
 (*) == default
 
+ro                      Mount filesystem read only. Note that ext3 will replay

+                        mounted "read only". Mount options "ro,noload" can be
+                        used to prevent writes to the filesystem.

 journal=update          Update the ext3 file system's journal to the current
