What did the message say?!?

Chances are that it is mounted read only.
You can remount it read/write with:
# mount -o remount,rw /mnt/win_c
NB That you will have to change "win_c" to
reflect where it is mounted on your system.

That should be fine for saving to a win98
filesystem, you may have more problems with
XP if you formatted using nfts instead of
fat.
