Most probably the file system is read-only - check the /etc/exports
file on your NFS server; make sure you export the file system
writable, and make sure to have the "no_root_squash" option set; see
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/SystemSetup#Section_4.8. for
details.

My guess is that you forgot the "no_root_squash", but I would not bet
a beer on it.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
