OK, I'm not the command line expert (FAR from it!) but I think this may be your problem:

It's my understanding that when you boot into single user with just the "-s", you need to mount the root drive in "read/write" mode - else you can "read" (I believe) but not "write" to files... The patcher needs to modify files and write the modified data.

( if you use the "sudo" command - it let's you boot as a "super user" with all rights to read & write files. ex: sudo -s (I think you have to supply your password also))

The instruction I read (somewhere here) was as I listed above with the "mount -uw /" to make sure the root drive was mounted read/write.

Someone PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong!

Anyway, that's the way I've been doing it for weeks and the patcher has always run properly and given me positive results.
