Re: N900 - Hardrive is in Read Only Mode
 

rootsh is installed, i just checked in application manager - uninstall - list of all the installed application - roosh

but cannot find the new download for roosh and also cannot uninstall the old roosh.

Is there a command to check if roosh is insttalled ?

Re: N900 - Hardrive is in Read Only Mode
 

Why do you want to uninstall/install rootsh?
Just type
sudo gainroot
(or just "root")
then you should be able to execute umount.

I run sudo gainroot

output - Root Shell enabled

/home/user # umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
/home/user # fsck -a /dev/mmcblk0p1

Output:

fsck 1.41.3.maemo0 (12-Oct-2008)
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, Fat32, LFN
/dev/mmcblk0p1:2786 files, 58184/442377 clusters

Re: N900 - Hardrive is in Read Only Mode
 

try this:
root
umount /home/user/MyDocs
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs -o rw

or this:
root
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs
exit
exit
