I intend to do a iso setup file ubuntu that mount hard drive as read-only after installing (i'm working on alternate CD and remastersys). I try by adding the "ro" to the fstab, put it at "UUID:......" . But how to take over other machines, it is automatically set to do so, the UUID is different when use other machine ? Can someone help me ?
