Good People(and Bad ones as well),<br><br>I got a read-only file system error on one of my hardisks on a Linux box and quickly switched to root and did &#39;mount -o remount,rw /where/i/wanted/it/to/be/mounted/ &#39; but I keep getting the error &#39;mount: block device /dev/sdb2 is write-protected, mounting read-only&#39; . <br>

<br>I have also tried to unmount it so that I mount it afresh, i.e &#39;umount /where/it/was/mounted/  but I get the error &#39;umount: /where/it/was/mounted/: device is busy&#39; ! Is there something i&#39;m missing here?<br clear="all">
