Strangely, root file system changes to Read-only mode abruptly sometimes. I suspect this is due to this WiFi card installation. So I disable it now. (2024.09.22)
First connect through cable and find wlp4s0 is UP. $ ip l show ... 3: wlp4s0: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 58:86:94:f8:dc:d1 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Now change its state to DOWN. $ sudo ip link set wlp4s0 down $ ip l show ... 3: wlp4s0: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 58:86:94:f8:dc:d1 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
