[Solved] How do i apply a patch to embedded/nanobsd (read-only filesystem?)
-
I am trying to set up pfSense on a Compact Flash card. I have applied this patch to a VMware virtual machine running 1.2.2, using this command:
patch -p1 -d / < wildcards.patch
It works as expected.
Now I want to add the patch to an embedded version on a CF, but there seems to be a problem with writing permissions:

Is there a way to make this patch work on nanobsd/embedded?
Or is it maybe possible to patch the img file before writing it to the CF?

Start with the command: /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
And end with: /etc/rc.conf_mount_ro
Cheers.

Thanks, that helped.
