The issue seems to be that indeed /var is still read-only: writev(6, [{iov_base="<46>", iov_len=4}, {iov_base="systemd-journald", iov_len=16}, {iov_base="[815]: ", iov_len=7}, {iov_base="Received client request to flush"..., iov_len=49}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 5) = 77 mkdirat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/log/journal/ec14ed36308c4af2b46995c50601f402", 0755) = -1 EROFS (Read-only file system) openat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/log/journal/ec14ed36308c4af2b46995c50601f402/system.journal", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC, 0640) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) openat(AT_FDCWD, "/run/log/journal/ec14ed36308c4af2b46995c50601f402", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC|O_DIRECTORY) = 24 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
