This laptop has one hard disk with two partitions. One of them has a bunch of data. I can't delete the data at all, dolphin(the file manager) gives a "not enough permissions error". When I try to delete stuff with rm it displays this:
rm: cannot remove 'filename': Read-only file system
What do I do?
EDIT: I backed up the data and reformatted the partition. This completely broke my install and fedora wouldn't open at all. I popped in a live USB, backed up some other stuff and I am reinstalling fedora right now (writing this from the live installer :P)
Not sure if the Linux NTFS driver supports read-write access. If it does, you should be able to remount it as rw. If not, there are rescue disks around that do have rw NTFS support.
You could just delete the entire partition and recreate it. You'd need to unmount it before you do.
