Hello,
I am using imx8mq in android8.1. Now I want to remount /system to rw. I use the following command
1|evk_8mq:/dev/block # mount -o rw,remount /system
but the result is:
mount: '/system' not in /proc/mounts
Who can tell me how to do to remount /system?
Thanks!

Hi,
i also need to set /system as rw, to update splash images.
here in chapter 15 the steps to do it:
https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/reference-manual/Android_Frequently_Asked_Questions.pdf
I am using Android Automotive 13 on an iMX8QuadXPlus MEK demoboard.
I tried using your procedure.
From windows pc I connect with "apd shell" command and it works.
from windows prompt I am connected to the device as you can see from the attached image.
But when i give the command "adb root" as response i have :
adb inacessible or not found
could you help me?
Hi VinothS,
Thank you very much. Now I can remount it.
Alternatively you can set both device and mountpoint to the command:
# mount -o rw,remount /path/to/the/partition /system
