用户文件夹意外重定位，没有权限将其移回（只读文件系统）

Question

Thanks to a rashly typed mv command and my inexperience in installing LaTeX packages, I managed to move my user folder--let's call it /home/bob for the purposed of not revealing my name--somewhere else. I started a recovery terminal and found bob buried down in usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex .

I tried moving the folder back (going to usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex and running mv bob /home/ , but I got the message

mv: cannot move 'bob' to '/home/bob': Read-only file system

I don't really know what else to do to fix this... Do I just use chmod and change the permissions or do I have to remount something? Since these are all my files, I'd rather ask and be sure than play around more and just make things worse.

EDIT: I tried chmod 777 bob but got the message

chmod: changing permissions of 'bob': Read-only file system

Also, mkdir /home/bob gave me a similar error (Read-only file system)

Answer 1

Use chmod

chmod 777 bob

mv bob/ /home

or You can create a folder with similar name

mkdir /home/bob
