I'm booting DSL via loadlin,It works a treat!

But i want to make my harddrive(/dev/hda1) read-writeable.

How could i go about doing this?

If I remember correctly you should add "ro" (without quotes) at the end of the loadlin command. During boot the file system is checked and this requires read-only access, after the check it should automatically be remounted as read-write.

I tried that but it complains that it's a read-only filesystem and then drops me to a limited shell.

What file system is your hard drive formatted for?
