The problem isn't writable, the problem is that it needs to be *there* under /etc. As it stands now, things in /mnt/runtime either need modified to look in a different /etc/, or have their required /etc files installed in stage1. > /var I can > see although we could also continue the path of what we've done > for /var/lib/xkb to point the paths we know need to be writable at /tmp > instead Again, that means putting any required /var things in stage1, and requires that everyone know that you can't just put /etc or /var stuff in KEEPFILES and expect it to work.
