I have a system of dual boot
- windows installed in HDD
- Linux installed in SSD
When I am trying to change any file say create a new folder using my Linux system in HDD mkdir name I am getting errors like mkdir: cannot create directory ‘name’: Read-only file system
I have also tried to change the drive permission using chmod but failed.
>Solution :
With dual boot Linux and Windows you have to disable fast boot in Windows, if you have not done it, you can do so by following these instructions:
-
Go to "
Control Panel>Power Options" -
To the left, click "
Choose what the power buttons do." -
Click "
Change settings that are currently unavailable." -
Uncheck "
Turn on fast startup (recommended)" thensavethe changes. -
Done.
Control Panel is harder to get to on recent versions of Windows, it’s easier to press Windows + X, click "Power Options", then at the bottom click "Additional power settings".
