Even if you have a read-only file system, you will still need a ram based 
filesystem of some sort (ramfs, tmpfs or a good old fashioned ramdisk).   
That will give you a good scratch area for networking, debug files and of 
course, unix sockets, which is what Nano-X is trying to write.

Try adding this to your init script:

mount -t ramfs ramfs /tmp
