Packages that select ROOTFS_RUN, such as UDEV, expect to be able to write to /run even if the root filesystem is mounted read-only. Same applies to the options such as ROOTFS_RESOLV_RUN, which installs /etc/resolv.conf as a link to /run/resolv.conf. This is useful if resolv.conf needs to be writable, but the root fs is mounted read-only. By the way I also submitted a patch to the ptxdist ML to allow installing /etc/hosts as a link to /run/hosts, same case as above. Please let me know if you would like me to resend that patch. > I will apply it, thanks. Thank you! Best, -- Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia [email protected]
