[opensuse] cannot remove Read-only files
Have some downloaded files which I would delete. Get permision denied Read-only. Trying to change these files with chmod get more or less the same answer. How could I force a change of the permissions for these files and of course for the directories and subdirectories? Is there something stronger then rm -f and something which could force the change of permissions. Of course I did the chmod etc. as root. -- Linux User 183145 using LXDE on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 11.3 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.34-12-default LXDE WM & KDE Development Platform: 4.4.93 (KDE 4.4.93 (KDE 4.5 >= 20100713)) 15:12pm up 1:50, 3 users, load average: 1.16, 1.08, 1.01 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Is your filesystem mounted read/write? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (19.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You are right with the question. This filesystem was read-only. Changed it and everything was okay. Always thought that with chmod such things could be changed. -- Linux User 183145 using LXDE on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 11.3 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.34-12-default LXDE WM & KDE Development Platform: 4.4.93 (KDE 4.4.93 (KDE 4.5 >= 20100713)) 15:36pm up 2:14, 3 users, load average: 0.26, 0.64, 0.71 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
