Under *any* circumstances? Yes. Those circumstances include: - a broken lock position sensor on the SD card reader - the SD card is actually a microSD card in an adaptor; moving it to a microSD reader or a different adaptor will work - the reader has been altered away from spec - the lock tab is moved Note that Linux needs to remount a read-only filesystem to make it read-write. Now, what is the problem you are actually trying to solve? -dsr-
