Here is a quick and dirty way to block webOS updates brought to us by "psykoz"
This is only for the truly paranoic - we don't suggest that everyone needs to do this, since we've seen that 1.0.3 does not break anything, and we always have the 1.0.2 webOS Doctor to reinstall a 1.0.2 if something does get broken in the future.
cd /usr/bin mount -o remount,rw / chmod -x *Update* mount -o remount,ro /
No more executing the update program.
Comment:
What's the advantage in doing this? Is it to avoid mods being reverted? Doesn't it make more sense to keep backups of all changed files somewhere, accept updates, and then reintroduce your changes? - //This would be useful in the event a future update were to eliminate access to the Pre.//
