Temporarily disable read only

Bazzite

I have a layered file that isn’t detected but it’s inside my rpm-ostree folder as astal-io if I try to reinstall it says it exists, how do I remove it?

Try to install hyprpanel ostree with rpm-ostree install hyprpanel
I get error: Checkout astal-io-0~5.git4b283b0-1.fc41.x86_64: Hardlinking 19/786ef3953d224e494d75cb328e51dce53c659b486d75b114034ecf47a18fe5.file to astal: File exists

I even reset my ostree with rpm-ostree reset. It’s still there after all that I can’t create a custom Bazzite image due to GitHub commit issues. When changing my template I don’t NEED this, so if I can’t fix it it’s no big deal.

But please, how do I remove the ostree file of astal-io/astal if it’s immutable?

rpm-ostree usroverlay has functionality to create a temporary fully writable system. i don’t know if this will fix what you want to fix though.

So for that I tried that just now and I get this

eyes@Bazzite ~> rpm-ostree usroverlay
error: Read-only file system
eyes@Bazzite ~ [1]> sudo rpm-ostree usroverlay
[sudo] password for eyes:     
error: Deployment is already in unlocked state: transient

yeah i linked that so you can do some more research on it. i’m not at my computer right now to test this stuff out. try rpm-ostree usroverlay --help to see if im missing commands here. maybe try sudo rpm-ostree usroverlay or perhaps wait for someone else to respond because i dont know what im talking about

Yeah, reading up on it now thanks for the link, unfortunately the --help doesn’t help. I will keep researching.
