Last week after an update my system did not boot any more (After Reached target Initrd File Systems
, the boot was stuck on the start job for the root partition…)
I had to boot my system using an older TW version 20240801 to get the system running again. I then did sudo snapper rollback
to make the booted system workable. Now there are these snapshots:

When I now try to upgrade the system again, to check if the bug is fixed, I get this error for any package to install:
error: can't create transaction lock on /usr/lib/sysimage/rpm/.rpm.lock (Read-only file system)
How can I continue using and upgrading the system?
According to mount
, the only read-only mounts are /run/credentials/systemd-*
, /var/lib/snapd/snaps/*
and /run/credentials/*
