I followed a link to another thread that noted you could add a line to /opt/amazon/ebook/bin/start.sh to specify your timezone, so I thought this would be my solution. I opened a myts terminal window and started mc, walked to the directory and attempted to make a backup copy to start.orig to cover me. Unfortunately I get an error pop-up: "Cannot create target file './start.orig' Read-only file system (30)" when I do so.

So it appears that I need to get read/write access first to the file system, use mc to backup and then edit the file, and the return the file system to read/only mode. Is this documented somewhere?

Is there a better way to handle this?
