Arch Linux Part 3

Using BJ's Toshiba Satellite I started a new install of Arch Linux.  Again the first mirror I tried did not work but the second one did.  I was able to complete the install up to "Configuring the network".  At this point I received the "unknown host" error.  Using Nano I opened rc.conf but it was read only even though I was root.  After searching for a solution I finally started the install over.  Again I ran into problems when I went to configure the network, at this point I realized Arch Linux it self was in read only.  The message that comes up is cannot.... : Read-only file system.

The Kernel is 2.6.32-ARCH.  A couple of things I did during the install was installing sudo and using sda4 and noatime for my / and /home directories.  I cannot change the configuration files because they are read only so looks like another install is ahead.
