I wanted to modify the macOS startup icon that appears at boot, and I managed to find the exact location (at least I think)
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/LoginUIKit.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LoginUICore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/apple.png
But obviously I couldn’t edit it. So I tried sudo, disabling SIP, login as root and mount -uw / (this one just threw an error message), and even so when I tried to unlock the file it said that it’s on a read only volume. After some digging I found out that it’s a “safety feature” that cuts access off from core files. Maybe there’s some way out there to make that volume editable or something like that.. but right now I’m stuck.
