I've mounted an IMG through iDRAC9 remote file share and can browse it, but diskpart reports it as read-only. Clearing the flag in Windows doesn't work. Is there another way to mount it writable?
Can I make an IMG mounted through iDRAC9 writable?

Check the virtual media settings for a Read Only option. If it's available, uncheck it before mounting the image. Clearing the flag in diskpart may not help if the virtual media itself is presented as read-only.

Try mounting it through an iDRAC SSH session using the racadm remoteimage command rather than relying on the web interface. A FAT16 IMG was part of a reported working setup, so the image format may be worth checking too.

The Read Only option is visible in virtual media, but it's greyed out for this mount.
