if they are separate physical partitions mounting rw should be fine. We
normally just use one /usr partition and mount it ro to all domains.

to things to get closer to the root of your problem:

can you show us the output of 'mount' in dom0?

can you change the LABEL= entries in /etc/fstab to contain the /dev/hda*
partition names.

depending on how you created your partitions you might have multiple
partitions with the same label. I generally avoid using labels and use
the explicit devices.

Thanks
