Getting read only file system error when try to create local repository for docker. [1] I used this installed lima [2] over Macbook Air M1 (Apple chipset)

chown: changing ownership of 'oracle-19c/.DS_Store': Read-only file system
chown: changing ownership of 'oracle-19c/oradata': Read-only file system
chown: changing ownership of 'oracle-19c/': Read-only file system

Any one know how to resolve this. I have change the permission to read write with 'getInfor' option by selecting the relevant folder.

By default the home is read only. You may try write on /tmp/lima, this should work.

To make home and other paths writeable by default, do the following:

  1. Edit the file and set write: true under mount section

    $ vim ~/.lima/default/lima.yaml
    
  2. Then restart lima

    limactl list #this lists all running vms 
    limactl stop default #or name of the machine 
    limactl start default #or name of the machine

As @Dunick answered, We should add a writable feature to lima.yaml for each mounted volumes

 - location: "~"
 writable: true
 - location: "/tmp/lima"
 writable: true
