cp: cannot create regular file `rc.dat': Read-only file system

Asked by MacNuttin in Linux Administration

I edited rc.sysinit as root then on next boot the whole system is read only and can't re-edit it

Seams etc/rc.sysinit is linked to etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit

I tried chmod +rw and 777 still say read only file system

Any help appreciatedStart Free Trial
