When I try to save something or rename a file/folder it say this error " Read-only file system" or run something as root in the terminal it say this error
sudo: unable to open /var/lib/sudo/"My User Name"/0: Read-only file system
W: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock
E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
When I make a Folder the error dialog in the details with Nautilus is this:
Error creating directory: Read-only file system
I would show you I picture of it but it isn't even letting my save onto my flash drive. Please help me.
