Open a console window and sudo mount /dev/hd?? /mnt/hd?? to mount the windows drive with root permission.

Replace the ?? with the number of the partition and the drive you want to write to.

I am sorry to post a simple question.
I have failed to find the answer in the FAQs or this Forum.
I boot from a Knoppix Linux 3.2 CD
My FAT32 HDD is not writable.
I set it read-write by way of the desktop icon for it and properties.
I run sh
I cd to a directory which is writable in Windows.
I try the simple command
echo > hello
The response is
Read-only file system
I am really new to administering a system.
I infer that a script is run while booting.
I assume it is possible to jump to a script on the hdd if I want to alter it.
What should I read?
Open a console window and sudo mount /dev/hd?? /mnt/hd?? to mount the windows drive with root permission.

Replace the ?? with the number of the partition and the drive you want to write to.

that doesnt work!!!
Exactly what doesn't work? What do you type and do, what messages do you get back?
Try the tips from the following topic:
