For the Beta3 image, I have put the applications in the /system/app directory which would be read-only on the NAND. Upon boot, it would install it into the /data/app directory that is on the SD card.

Any applications that are installed through the ./adb install app method are put into the /data/app directory and are "persistent" across device flashings.

To remount the main filesystem as rw, do the following:

adb shell
mount -o remount,rw rootfs /

Cheers,
Brian

I just installed the beta-3 kernel/rootfs which has my YGPS Satellites installed by default, which is nice. However, I was just trying to install an upgrade to it, and I get a INSTALL_FAILED_REPLACE_COULDNT_DELETE, because it is a system app. I cannot uninstall it via the PackageManager either and mounting rootfs as rw does not help either. Is there a trick somewhere to uninstall/reinstall system apps? (As a workaround I can just use a different package of course).
