[Voyage-linux] RO/RW

[Kelly Hogan]

I ran that road for awhile as well.

The /ro directory is copied in the boot process to the /rw system which
lives in a TMPFS structure, so, no power, no more bits.  

Do  a 

voyage# mount / -o rw,remount
voyage# apt-get update
voyage# apt-get install whatever
voyage# mount / -o ro,remount

Keep in mind that if you need to "enhance" the file system, put your
enhancements in the /ro filesystem so the show up after a reboot.
