you should be able to remount the drive read-write by typing
Code:
mount -o remount rw /dev/hdxx

where xx is the drive identifier.

if that does not work, then reboot with the cd, and follow all step up to, and including, entering the chroot enviroment and mounting /proc. after doing that, you can recompile the kernel at will.
