You may use the 'mount' command as in
mount -o remount,rw /some_partition
install
mount -o remount,ro /some_partition
assuming that /some_partition has been already defined in your
/etc/fstab file.

Subject: Read only file system in linux.
Hi,
I have two questions regarding the read-only file system in Linux.
1) Where can I get any documents which explain the read-only file system for
Linux?
2) Is it possible to switch between the modes (i.e. change the file system
to read/write, install an application and get back to the read only mode
without rebooting).
Thanks in advance,
Samdeep
