I'm using Android Studio. I was trying to set up dev environment and it requires to modify hosts file. So,
- I created new devices in ADM (Nexus 4, Android 10 x86_64 without Google API and without Google Play).
- I lunched the emulator
- Then I tried following instructions from stackoverflow. I'm using Linux Mint so:
$ ~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/.adb root
output:
restarting adbd as root
Okay, I got root:
$ ~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/.adb shell whoami
output:
root
Then I suppose to remount and this is where I stuck:
~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/.adb remount
output:

I don't know if remount is the critical issue, but i guess so. At the moment I don't have permission to modify /etc/. For example:
$ ~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools./adb shell "cp /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.bak"
output:
cp: /etc/hosts.bak: Read-only file system
