Live dvd Problem
 

Hello I 've knoppix 4.0 live dvd and i canot write to my usb stick nor to any other partition(no ntfs)
Is there any way from live distribussions to have write access to removable storage devices such as usb stick.?
It says that the partition or the device is "read-only"
So can I write from live-cds to usbstick???
Thank you for reading thhis message

I 've tried chown root /dev/sdb1 and to /mnt/sdb1 ,also chmod 777 /dev/sdb1 and /mnt/sdb1 (sdb1 adressess to my usb stick )but still nothings happening .
Is it afterall possible to write to usb stick through live dvd anyway???
Thanks

Yes you can, when you insert the USB stick and click the icon in the desktop Knoppix automatically mounts the drive, but it mounts it read-only. To change this to read-write, right click the usb sticks icon on the desktop, go to Actions and the first in the list should say something like "Change to read write mode".

Alternatively instead of letting knoppix mount it read-only in the first place just issue this command in the shell: Or sdb1 in your case.

thank you very much for your reply ...it will save me from a lot of trouble
