Description Chen Qi 2013-07-22 02:22:27 UTC 
If the live image is mounted as read-only, we cannot make necessary directories under $ROOT_DIR/media, thus trying to move the mount points lead to errors.

If the rootfs is mounted as read-only, the media directory should be a mount point for tmpfs, such that it allows making directories under it.

I'll send out a patch after Ross Burton's patch has been merged, as it is somewhat related.
