I am running Knoppix 3.1 ( because it has Lyx) on a Windows 98 system.

If I want to save data ( from Lyx) on a floppy or the windows drive, or a USB external
keychain drive, do I have to remount the floppy etc?

Is it true that Knoppix 3.1. by default mounts the floppy drive, the USB drive, The Windows drive as READ ONLY?

If I have to remount so that I can write to the floppy or other drives, how do I do this--From the command line please--because I LOATHE the graphical interfaces, and much prefer to use the console.
thanks
Penny
