  6. if the file system is mounted read only you’ll need to do
    • blkid which gave me(/dev/vda1: LABEL=”DOROOT” UUID=”d1e1f550-6698-4cdd-899c-fa6ed6f8d15c” TYPE=”ext4″ PARTLABEL=”primary” PARTUUID=”4cdd99e6-9c0d-4fef-bcf1-5204b5ae9eb1″)
    • mount -rw -o remount UUID=d1e1f550-6698-4cdd-899c-fa6ed6f8d15c /
    • edit /etc/fstab and change the UUID of the root partition eg
      UUID=d1e1f550-6698-4cdd-899c-fa6ed6f8d15c / ext4 errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=quota.user,grpjquota=quota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1
    • reboot
  7. go to the ispconfig console
