read-only filesystems bug

Is there a way to get around the read-only filesystems bug? I am trying to
create a directory in /usr/include and it will not let me. It responds with
mkdir: : read-only filesystem. I know that this was a bug 6.1,
and that there is some way around it, or is there a patch out now for this.
Thank you.

This is solved in 6.2

In 6.1 you can CD to /proc/mount to see the individual mounts. To find
the mount for / look for the mounts owned by devb-eide

for example:

[thomas@piqnx_2] /proc/mount >pidin | grep devb
6 1 roc/boot/devb-eide 10o SIGWAITINFO
6 2 roc/boot/devb-eide 21r RECEIVE 1
6 3 roc/boot/devb-eide 21r RECEIVE 4
6 4 roc/boot/devb-eide 10o RECEIVE 10
6 5 roc/boot/devb-eide 10r CONDVAR b037866c
6 6 roc/boot/devb-eide 10o RECEIVE 7
6 7 roc/boot/devb-eide 2o RECEIVE 7
6 9 roc/boot/devb-eide 10o RECEIVE 7
110605 1 sbin/devb-fdc 10o SIGWAITINFO
110605 2 sbin/devb-fdc 21r RECEIVE 1
110605 3 sbin/devb-fdc 10o RECEIVE 7
110605 4 sbin/devb-fdc 10o CONDVAR b037866c
110605 5 sbin/devb-fdc 10o RECEIVE 4
110605 6 sbin/devb-fdc 10o RECEIVE 4
[thomas@piqnx_2] /proc/mount >ls -l 0,6,7,7,0/
total 36
drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 2048 Jan 26 12:52 boot/
drwxr-xr-x 5 root sys 2048 Jul 09 11:50 etc/
drwxrwxr-x 8 root root 2048 Jul 09 11:50 home/
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 2048 Jan 26 12:53 opt/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 2048 Jan 26 12:53 pkgs/
drwx------ 10 root root 2048 May 23 15:09 root/
drwxrwxrwt 3 root root 2048 Jul 09 17:17 tmp/
drwxr-xr-x 7 root sys 2048 Feb 07 08:57 usr/
drwxrwxrwx 11 root root 2048 Jan 26 17:03 var/

If you where to cd into 0,6,7,7,0 you will be able to create the directories
you need.
