I'm not hallucinating after all. I just tried this again: ./run-from-checkout tests/testpkg-simple/ --shell --- qemu adt-xenial-amd64-cloud.img Then ssh'ed in, and ran sudo apt-get install -y kpartx sudo kpartx -av /dev/baseimage sudo mount /dev/mapper/baseimage1 /mnt (no "readonly" warning here) sudo touch /mnt/foo (succeeded!) ls -l /mnt/foo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 9 08:22 /mnt/foo However, "foo" does not actually appear on the underlying image, so maybe it's sometimes using the overlay or something. So whatever it is, it doesn't actually seem to modify the baseimage, so we can ignore that for now.
