Hello list, My little Atom box has a small rescue system which I boot once a week to back up the main system. The backup script is a simple list of bash commands to mount partitions and tar them to a USB disk.
While the backup is running I run another script to clean up after any recent update, which involves removing surplus packages, running eclean etc. But! At least once per session I have to remount the root filesystem read- write because something, presumably tar, has caused it to be remounted read- only. Where do I start tracking this down? This behaviour was a factor in my suspecting an SSD failure, but I've replaced that and still get the same remounting. -- Regards, Peter.
