Just tried that, and unfortunately it doesn't work. :( I also tried the most recent mainline kernel from kernel ppa (4.0 rc3 IIRC), and it didn't work either. I don't think it's a kernel issue.
I also tried running "mount -o remount,rw /" off a normal VT rather than the debug shell, and it worked and gave me write access to the file system as the normal user. However, I wasn't able to start sddm from the VT or access the GUI at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431743 Title: fails to boot due to read-ony file system Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have just recently done a sudo apt-get upgrade, noting something about an included 219 update -- after consequent reboot, the system now hangs at starting 219.
