    Background info: On shutdown systemd tries to unmount all filesystem. But flash can't be unmounted as it contains the squashfs root filesystem (SYSTEM file) which is still mounted and being used (systemd/shutdown is executing from there).

    In this case systemd shows a warning and remounts the filesystem read-only.

    You can make this warning go away by appending "toram" to the end of kernel command line (eg cmdline.txt on RPi). LE then copies SYSTEM to RAM and /flash can be unmounted on shutdown. Note however that this needs about 150-200MB of RAM, so better don't use that if you run LE on a system with less than about 2GB RAM.

    So for me it looks a nicer way to shutdown

    So I have to add "toram" at the end in a kernal command line

    Where, In a file cmdline.txt?

    It would help if you tell us which system you are running LibreELEC on, the filename is different for RPi, x86, Allwinner, Rockchip etc

    On RPi it's /flash/cmdline.txt

    this is in the "syslinux.cfg" file

    -----------------

    DEFAULT linux

    PROMPT 0

    LABEL linux

    KERNEL /KERNEL

    APPEND boot=UUID=C16D-AC53 disk=UUID=cc1c114c-9b00-43cd-9b33-a1142197e05c quiet


    where is the run section?

    Forget about the run section (this will only be on the installation image), just add "toram" to the end of the APPEND line, after "quiet".

    so long,
