Hi,

I have a question. Is it possible to change a filesystem's
readonly/writeable flag without unmounting them?
For example to mount / readonly but if a change has to be done to quickly
mount it writeable and then readonly again.
ie. somehow to sort of sync(), and then to change it.

Thanks,

Andi
