Using VirtualBox 3.1.4 on Ubuntu 9.10 with android-x86-eeepc-2.0.iso
installed to a VBox Ext3 Partition.

I boot the debug console and try to
$ vi /mnt/grub/menu.lst
to add SDCARD=premount

but I can't save it, keep getting "Read-only file system".

I've tried
$ chmod 755 /mnt/grub/menu.lst
but doesn't make any difference.

You should do this first:

mount -o remount,rw /mnt

Yeah, I'm accessing YouTube mobile.  It's only when I click on a video
that I get the error.
