Not sure how or why I am getting this error- I attempted to install python on a jailbroken paperwhite 4, and after attempting to install the bin file using mrpackages, I get a "failed to remount rootfs", then "really failed to remount rootfs, a reboot is recommended". I am using the file 'Update_python3_0.015.N_install_pw2_and_up.bin'. How can I troubleshoot this? Where do I start? how can I possibly fix this?
