The ro is one of the options, not a filetype. Look in your /etc/fstab file
and make sure all the arguments to the filesystems that are being mounted
are in the correct column.

Column 1 is for the device to mount.
Column 2 is where is should mount in the local filesystem tree
Column 3 is the filesystem type
Column 4 is for options
5 and 6 are useless dreckt as far as I'm concerned. See the man page for
more info.

It looks like you have some things to straighten out in columns 3 and 4....
