Read-only filesystem #201

Closed moonwolf-github closed 5 years ago

moonwolf-github commented 5 years ago

I'm running casync on RO squashfs filesystem (ran from initrd) to populate empty disk and i'm getting error:

# casync extract http://server/test.caibx /dev/sda
Failed to run synchronizer: Read-only file system

Is there option to run it that way or any workaround?

casync wants to write to /var/tmp to temporarily store chunks it just downloaded. Is that writable?

Now it is, thanks! Can't say it's working because now it says "Can't acqurie" and "Broken pipe". But this is separate issue i guess.
