rpi-readonly's Issues

Make boot partition rw

It's useful having a rw area, for debug purposes. Is there a way to keep the boot partition rw?

Oh and thanks for making these scripts and keeping them up to date. They are real lifesavers. I'm always hesitant to try scripts posted on forums, as they quickly go stale.

Wifi not working

I think there may be an issue with wifi not working after running this script. Investigating...

logout as non root in ro mode

just a minor glitch:

pi@raspberrypi(ro):~$ logout
mount: only root can use "--options" option
/sbin/fake-hwclock: 37: /sbin/fake-hwclock: cannot create /etc/fake-hwclock.data: Read-only file system
mount: only root can use "--options" option
mount: only root can use "--options" option
Connection to raspberrypi closed.

Altered the setup.sh file and added a line to grab the UUID of the SD card...

I downloaded and ran the script on my new 2017-11-29-stretch install and it mostly worked... errors and fixes below:

• Got an error on line 27 where it tries to move and rename /etc/resolv.conf... just needed a space between the old and new file.
• Line 24 echos a string to '/boot/cmdline.txt' but contains a UUID that did not match mine... I added the following to the script starting at line 24 and replacing the previous echo directive:

uuid=`grep '/ ' /etc/fstab | awk -F'[=]' '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}'`
echo "dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=$uuid rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait noswap ro fastboot" > /boot/cmdline.txt

I hope this helps someone out there - your script was desperately need in my mind, thank you for putting it together in the first place! :)
