All,
I have an 8 GB memory stick that has too many files on it. I'd like to
delete
some of them, but I can't seem to find now to do that.
I try the standard way, like this:
pereira@steve:/media/B826-3C5D$ rm NewF*
rm: cannot remove `NewFile11.csv': Read-only file system
(snip)
and this:
pereira@steve:/media/B826-3C5D$ sudo rm NewF*
rm: cannot remove `NewFile11.csv': Read-only file system
(snip)
and this, even though I know it shouldn't make any difference (and it
doesn't):
pereira@steve:/media/B826-3C5D$ sudo mv NewF* ~/.
mv: cannot remove `NewFile11.csv': Read-only file system
(snip).
I also try with the mouse in a pictorial view of the file system: no
difference
(as it shouldn't either).
What am I missing?
Nino
