Just adding to this... be careful with what you remove from there. Some apps might be required for the phone to boot properly and/or to function. Research before you start deleting stuff from the
/system/app/ folder.
And yes, the
mount... line is necessary to unlock (write permissions) the
/system folder.
Also... at the end you might want to 'close' (restore read only permissions) the
/system folder:
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
