Failed to overwrite statefile "Read only file-system"
/ is mounted as Read-only.
I created a Symbolic link for ifstate from /etc/network/run to /var/run (/var/run is mounted as tmpfs) and I can write to and from the file perfectly fine, but when trying to start the network I get "Failed to overwrite statefile Read only file-system". I double checked permissions to see if that was the problem, but it does not appear to be. Any advice? |
May be directory itself "read-only" or you do not have permissions to write there?
|
I don't seem to be able to change the directory permissions. Either way the symbolic link should point it to /var/run which is writable.
|
Can certain user write to there?

I was getting this error on Ubuntu Hardy using Xen VM, found that I was missing /lib/init/mount-functions.sh so just transferred it from other VM.
