earlier i used to boot from my cd...
i have an external 40 gb firewire hdd (sda1)
to mount my firewire i would use:
sudo mount -o remount,rw,uid=knoppix /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
evrything would be perfect....i could change files and all on my firewire....

now i used tohd=/dev/sda1...worked great.....rebooted then used fromhd=/dev/sda1..also worked great

but when i try to mount my firewire on knoppix using the same command...it works...but for some reason its read only...
please help me
