Then nothing is wrong with the filesystem, and either your editor is
broken, or you don't know how to use it.
If this works, then you just need to read up on your editor:
# echo "Hello" > /n
yes it does!
can't edit /newfile though.

What do you mean nothing? This filesystem is mounted "rw". The second
"-ro" is what happens when an error occurs. However, at the time of
executing this c
nothing apparently.
# mount
/dev/sda1 on / type ext2 (rw,errors=remount -ro)
