hi all I tried to mount a partition containing a ufs filesystem, generated under solaris 7 on a ss10. With mount -t ufs -o ufstype=sun /dev/sdbx /mnt I can mount the partition, and /etc/mtab reports: /dev/sdbx /mnt ufs rw,ufstype=sun 0 0.
however, when I try to write something onto this partition, e.g. by writing mkdir /mnt/test then the answer is: mkdir: cannot create directory '/mnt/test': Read-only file system so what's wrong? This problem happend with suse 7.3 and with 7.1 as well and I remember to know this also from x86-linux when mounting vfat filesystems (in this case, however, it appeared always after a certain time of use and could be "fixed" by unmounting and remounting the filesystem...). I remember that formerly, say 1.5 years ago, everything worked with nearly the same hardware, the only difference being the first hd, but not the second one, which should be mounted. So I suppose, it's a thing of doing the commands correctly and not of sparc-linux itself. Any suggestions?
