OpenSuse 11.0 after Vista - partition problem!

[user]

Hi all,
I got my acer laptop with preinstalled Vista on it. Vista was installed on drive c: (60Gb) and drive d: (60Gb) was used to store all my audio and video files etc. After I got rid of Vista and installed OpenSuse 11.0 instead, everything works fine except for one big problem. All the files on my drive d: are still in there however it’s recognized by Linux as a kind of Windows folder and it is not possible to delete anything from it neither save on it. The access to it is File System -> Windows -> C . What shall I do as I’ll need to use it as there are 45Gb free on it. >:(

Thank you.

Hi kemronirons, welcome to the Forums. The partition is mounted read-only. You must remount it read-write. Have a read of this tutorial:
