I have:
Voyage FW 5.8.7

With this tutorial I got READING-access for the file system. I use a MAC, Transmit as client and Telnet.

I wanted to edit some file in opt/amazon/ebook/...
I struggled with write-access until I figured out to use Telnet:

I startet Telnet in a Terminal-window 'telnet 192.168.15.244'.
Then read the info comming at the beginning:
'Rootfs is mounted read-only. Invoke mntroot rw...'
Ok, typing in the terminal 'mntroot rw' solved the problem! Hurra - writing-access. Problem solved.

Until now... I want to edit this path:
/urs/java/lib/fonts/...
Doing the Voodoo above --> no writing-access. This behaviour is very frustrating for me!

Edit: problem not solved but clear why: different folder do have limmited space, very limmited space...

Any ideas and hints?

Thank you!
