[Xbox-linux-user] Read-only file system in MechInstaller's "Emergency Linux"

[James S. <xbo...@sa...>]

Hi,

I have just used the MechInstaller. It all worked very smoothly indeed.

I had wanted to play around with the mini "Emergency Linux". I am away from
a high speed internet connection for about three weeks, so downloading the
full Ed's Debian is not really an option, and anyway being new to Linux I
like the idea of getting to know a really stripped down version.

However I find that the root filesystem is read-only.

  (none) / # touch testfile
  touch: testfile: Read-only file system

Is it possible to make it read/write?

Output from xbox_tool -a below.

Thanks,

James
