    I can't install wifi:create_module: Operation not permitted

    Hi, sorry for my english. I've got wifi atheros (D-link G520 (b,g)) on Knoppix liveCD 3.3 11-19-03.

    After make drivers(madwifi) i have made 3 files(wlan.o,ath_hal.o,ath_pci.o). I need to do insmod
    insmod wlan/wlan.o
    insmod ath_hal/ath_hal.o
    insmod driver/ath_pci.o

    I have this report:
    knoppix@ttyp0[madwifi]$insmod wlan/wlan.o
    wlan/wlan.o: create_module: Operation not permitted

    I also tried make install:
    knoppix@ttyp0[madwifi]$ make install
    for i in ./ath_hal ./wlan ./driver; do \
    (cd $i; make install); \
    done
    make[1]: Entering directory `/ramdisk/home/knoppix/madwifi/ath_hal'
    test -d //lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/net || mkdir //lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/net
    cp ath_hal.o //lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/net
    cp: cannot create regular file `//lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/net/ath_hal.o': Read-only file system
    make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
    make[1]: Leaving directory `/ramdisk/home/knoppix/madwifi/ath_hal'
