Editing Launch Daemons

[edit0r1593]

Hey Guys,

I'm wondering if anyone has advice. I'm trying to edit a launch daemon but I can't gain permissions to do so. I have SIP disabled. I'm logged in as an Admin with root user enabled. But I can't gain access to edit the plist. Obviously I can copy it over to another location edit it there, but I cant replace it, or edit the file directly in the launchdaemons folder. I'm confused. I have tried repairing permissions through various means. Any ideas?

Cheers!

Are the files you are trying to edit on the read-only system partition (assuming you are running Catalina)?

Thanks for your reply. Yes the message I get is that the file is on a read only partition.

Follow the first 3 steps from here (you don't need to do the folder creation stuff obviously): https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/119790
