Actually, mkwritable does not make the /etc directory writable, it alread IS writable.
However, there are two limitations to the existing configuration:
1) Many of the files require Super User ("root") authority in order to edit or delete them.
2) Many of the files are actually symbolic links (kinda like MS Window's "shortcuts" but better) that point to the real files. The real files are located on the CDROM disk so they are read-only.
However, you can still fix this problem manually:
Open "Emelfm as Super User"
Go to the /etc directory.
DELETE the /etc/motd file link.
In the other window pane, go to /KNOPPIX/etc and copy the motd file over to /etc
To edit it, Right-Click on the file and choose User Edit in Beaver and you are in business.
