My Samsung tablet complained there there was a problem with the SD card,
and it had been switched to read-only.
"No problem.", I thought, "I'll put it in my Linux machine, run fsck on
it, and get it up and running in no time!"
Nope, after a few hours of being frustrated that Linux's ability to do
exfat is apparently incomplete (grr) I keep futzing…
I finally realized that it was not a case of the file system having
problems, it is a case of the SD card itself concluding that it is not
healthy and setting a one-time read-only bit. Linux can't change that
bit because the firmware on the SD card refuses.
Okay…time to back up and then restore to another SD card.
We'll see,
