Android Writable /system

If you have rooted your Android device and want to make the /system partition rw (writeable) from the terminal, here is how you do it:

mount -w -o remount /system

You can undo that with:

mount -r -o remount /system

I found lots of people doing this, but their way was more complex. This works on my Xoom and my Droid/Cyanogenmod and would probably work on other devices too.
