knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ su
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# mount -rw /dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5
mount: /dev/hda5 already mounted or /mnt/hda5 busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/hda5 is already mounted on /mnt/hda5
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# mkdir /mnt/hda5/knx
mkdir: cannot create directory `/mnt/hda5/knx': Read-only file system
root@ttyp0[knoppix]#

Anyone know how to fix this?

I guess I don't see what there is to fix. The drive is already mounted.

cd /mnt/hda5
ls

If you want to remount rw then issue:

mount -o remount,rw /dev/hda5
