So, a snapshot being read-only is totally different from the FS being mounted read-only. There is a special property on the snapshot that determines whether it is read-only or writable, which is first set when the snapshot is created. To change that property so that the snapshot is writable, you can use the following command from the top directory of the snapshot:Hi,it should be just a small problem, but it is one. How can I rollback to a snapshot of my root filesystem ? Googeling, I found a lot of solutions, each different.

The change of the configuration has disappeared.
