Hi, The reason being we have a test app that this confirgured to carry out some operation under this custom folder created on the target under root. Instead of customising the app we were trying to explore whether this is doable.
On Windows Mobile this was doable. We try porting this test framework on various platforms and maintain the same behavior across OSes unless no alternatives are available. Thanks Dianne for your prompt feedback, we would do the needed change in our test app. Regard, Royston On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 12:10 PM, Dianne Hackborn <[email protected]>wrote: > This is not possible on a regular device. > > Why would you have a requirement to put a directory there? > > > On Thu, Sep 10, 2009 at 11:34 PM, Royston <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> Hi All, >> >> On Android targets, I observe that / is a read-only file system.
