use the mount command to tell you what is properly mounted.  

$ mount
/dev/hde2 on / type ext3 (rw) <-- this tells you hde2 is mounted

The permissions error is from a lack of permission, not improper
mounting.  Mounted rw or not, some users just aren't allowed to
overwrite files in /sbin.  This is a good thing.
