FAILURE DURING ALCATEL INSTALLATION - PLEASE HELP!!
Hi, I am very new to linux and am in the process of trying to get my alcatel modem working so i can browse the web.
At this point I should probably tell you I am using the live cd of knoppix version 3.4,
I have copied and extracted the file:
speedtouchconf-19-06-2004.tar.gz
into my home directory, I have the copied the file :
mgmt.o
into the created directory speedtouchconf-19-06-2004.
I have then opened a shell window, changed from user to root with su command, then run :
sh speedtouchconf-19-06-2004.sh
I have then answered all the questions and away the installation goes, that is UNTIL !!!
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/sbin/modem_run :
Read only file system
I have tried changing the file permission with
Root@TTYP1[local]# chmod a+w sbin
to which it says something along the lines of
changing user permissions of the file sbin : Read only file system
Getting very frustrating, I hope someone can help me with this problem I am pulling my hair out and cant find any info apart from the usual how to install $%& that I've been following.
Thanks for reading this massive problem

Hi Arran
U say u are using the live cd if that is the case I am sorry but you cannot add software to the system while running the live cd version.
To add the software u either have to install to a hard drive and then add the software OR you can re-master the disk following the instructions available onthis site

many thanks, i have been dowinloading various torrent isos (full versions etc) and none of them after burning worked (ie installed) I really wanted to install it to a partition and have a dual o/s system, but have been unable to find a working full version.
I finally found a workmate who had the live eval version. I'd previously downloaded that twice and burned it to no avail.
I'll try and remaster, failing that I'll have to find a full version from somewhere.
n e way
many thanks

Regards re-mastering knoppix live cd
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to which re-mastering and what it does?
Will it allow me to install it to a partition on my HDD or will it just allow me permissions over certain files?
any help welcome
and thx 2 richie

You don't need to remaster if you intend on installing it to hdd. You can add drivers or whatever you like to an hdd install. Remastering would be useful if you need to add something to the live cd.
Kano has made a script to ease with installing/configuring the Speedtouch modems. Look here:

Here is the scriipt you need:

As I understand it this should also work from live cd.
