oh ok will do!
** /dev/sda1
** Checking HFS Plus volume.
** Checking Extents Overflow file.
** Checking Catalog file.
** Checking Catalog hierarchy.
** Checking volume bitmap.
** Checking volume information.
** The volume untitled appears to be OK.
this was it…
so i did mount again in terminal and it still showed as ro
How did you mount it again?
i just typed in mount from terminal
sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 /boot
Try sudo mount -o rw,remount /dev/sda1 /boot
then do i reboot?
No, then it should be mounted readwrite.
So just do mount again and check.
Also what was the output of the previous command, any error?
nope it didnt work still showed as ro…
so i did the 
sudo reboot, and it worked!!

is it odd that one partition is ext4? and one is hfs+???
That is really odd! So did sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 /boot give any error?
Anyhow you are now fixed and should be able to do updates
na man no error it just sat there in terminal for a minute or so,:
osmc@osmc:~$
osmc@osmc:~$
osmc@osmc:~$ sudo mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda1 /boot
osmc@osmc:~$ mount
so i typed mount, it showed it as ro, then i redid the command to make it wr, and at the end did sudo reboot, and it came back as rw
so it should now remain as rw right? and make my updates normal again?
New kernel update improvements will ensure it is RW before trying to write to boot.

Thanks for the thread… I was able to update from the command line after reading through everything!
