Hi,
I created an USB-Stick from the downloaded Qubes-Image. I tried to add files on the stick for using them after booting the rescue-system. Is this possible?
Doesn’t it automatically mount as read-only?
It may fail integrity checks if you add files, maybe it doesn’t matter to you though.
It would perhaps be better to use a separate usb stick.

Yes, it is mounted as read-only. There are 2 partitions on the USB-Stick. I can mount them manually as read-write and add files. After booting from the USB-Stick to the rescue-system the files are lost / I can’t find them.
I followed the description from
https://www.asty.org/qubes-os-is-incredible-heres-some-tips-and-quick-hacks-for-it/
to add a new partition to the USB-Stick.
The command
sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sdX3
ended with the error message:
ext2fs_mkdir: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler beim Erstellen des Wurzelverzeichnisses
After that the stick was not usable.
I recreated the ISO-Image to add files to the USB-Stick.
