Download an ISO and copy it to an ISO folder

[Ed_P]

I use to do this all the time but now I can't, ever in Root mode.

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~/Downloads$ cp *.iso /mnt/nvme0n1p7/ISOs
cp: cannot create regular file '/mnt/nvme0n1p7/ISOs/porteux-v0.5-xfce-4.12-current-x86_64.iso': Read-only file system
guest@porteus:~/Downloads$ 

So to download porteus isos I need to boot Windows.

Highly likely your nvme0n1p7 is in trouble.
That Windows can write to that partition and Linux cannot is a sign of Windows fast boot. Check your Windows settings and do full shutdowns, not reboots.

Yeah, I booted Windows and did a chkdsk d: /f on the drive and now things are back to normal.
