    Problem when moving New Fstab to the Old Fstab to fix Suse

    Hello I have problems moving my edited fstab to overwrite the original fstab and i get the error

    bash:/dev/null:Permission denied
    knoppix:/#

    while running the command
    su
    chroot /mnt/hda7/

    I have also made my partition write but I get the errors

    Access denied couldn't write to /mnt/hda7/eetc/fstab

    Access denined to /mnt/hda7/eetc/fstab

    Is the filesystem you're trying to edit mounted?

    You may need to mount it, and then try your editing.

    Post the output of mount
    Also you have one e too many in: Access denined to /mnt/hda7/eetc/fstab
    OTOH since denined is also misspelled it's a typo instead of copy paste?

    Open a console, type mount and post the line for hda7
    man mount gives you the manual for mount, quit by pressing q

    In Knoppix or Suse?

    In knoppix. That's after all what you're mounting if you boot knoppix. You can post the line from suse as well, just say which is which.

    Well, it's night in Finland and I need some sleep.
    When you type sudo mount -a all partitions should be mounted writable.
    Check with mount and you should see a line like this: /dev/hda6 on /mnt/hda6 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,grpid)
    Yours will probably be different, IIRC suse uses reiserfs so you can also mount with:
    sudo mount /dev/hda7 /mnt/hda7 -t reiserfs -o remount,rw (if it's not already mounted you can skip the remount part)
