Not necessarily. It's part of the bootstrapping process, you need to
mount the root system to know how to mount the root system :)

It also says "readonly", this is probably not true either.
Usually the root filesystem is remounted read/write.

But if ext3 is working normally, you shouldn't see the .journal file.
e2fsck will hide it, I think.
