Read only file system.

[TheE]

I just copied DSL linux to my hard drive with the frugal install.

Now it says that there is a "read-only" filesystem, which I cannot edit.

I tried logging as superuser, and remounting the partition with -rw. Oddly enough it says that this perticular partiton is a /CDROM drive when I try the mount command.

Anyone know how to fix this?

mount it with the iso9660 file system or cdfs then navigate or open the mounted virtual system and then copy and paste the info or files u need

Post the output of fdisk -l command and contents of /etc/fstab file.

Thanks for the help, I ended up just switching distros. Works fine now.
