rsync problem

[Michael]

oops wrong copy:

 $ rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents /media/bmike1/Re
dSanDisk/
rsync: failed to set times on "/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk/Documents":
Read-only file system (30)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk/Documents/signature.jpg": Read-only file system
(30)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk/Documents/Business/i9Complete-pg1.jpeg":
Read-only file system (30)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk/Documents/Business/i9Complete-pg2.jpeg":
Read-only file system (30)
rsync: failed to set permissions on
"/media/bmike1/RedSanDisk/Documents/Business/Advantage": Read-only file
system (30)
etc...

and the same thing happened whhen I added the slash to the source:

$ rsync -aWuq --delete-before /home/bmike1/Documents/ /media/bmike1/R
edSanDisk/
