How to make squash file system read-write

My RTL8196EU Realtek board having read-only squash file system. How do I make this file system Read-Write.

I have tried mount command

mount -o remount,rw /

But its not fixing the problem.

Help me make a Read-Write squash fs

Solution

  • You can't. squashfs is inherently read-only.

    If you want to upload new files, you'll need to create and mount a separate read-write filesystem. If you want to modify the existing files, you'll need to create and (carefully!!) upload a replacement filesystem image.
