I cannot delete files, when I tried to delete the file, this message appeard:
"Error while deleting. There was an error deleting file2.rar."
This is what I get from clicking on SHOW MORE DETAILS:
"Error removing file: Read-only file system"
This is what I've tried so far:
- delete from the downloads directory from my user.
- deleting permanently, but it does not work.
EDIT
When trying to remount it as read/write I get this error:
jianyue@jianyue:~$ sudo mount -o remount,rw /media/A88F-8788
[sudo] password for jianyue:
sudo: unable to open /var/lib/sudo/jianyue/1: Read-only file system
mount: can't find /media/A88F-8788 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
