    Hi Anand

    Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately logging in as root did not help.

    however, I remounted the configfs with the following code and was able to edit it like normal.

    sudo mount -t configfs none /config

Hi,

Can you run the command in root privilege and without sudo.

like :root@socfpga:~# mkdir /sys/kernel/config/device-tree/overlays/my-cv-fpga-overlay

Let me know if this has helped resolve the issue you are facing or if you need any further assistance.

Best Regards,

Anand Raj Shankar
