qnx6 fs cannot be mounted read/write, standard hd

I am running Neutrino 6.4.0 with an attached standard 2.5" , 250GB Toshiba hard disk with 6 pre-existing qnx6 partitions. All of them can be mounted read-only; however, I cannot mount any of those as read/write. For instance:

mount -r -t qnx6 /dev/hd1t77.3 /home/p3

works fine, while 

mount -t qnx6 /dev/hd1t77.3 /home/p3

returns the following:

mount: Can't mount /home/p3 (type qnx6)
mount: Possible reason: Read-only file system

I have even tried different sync options (-o sync=ignore , and -o sync=optional), to no avail.

Interestingly, I have created an additional partition on the same disk using mkqnx6fs /dev/hd1t77.6 , and that partition CAN be mounted read/write

My question is, what might be causing the existing partitions to be read-only, and is there any way to make them read-write?

Your system defines partitions as qnx4 (t77). Probably you should try mount it with qnx4 type. See official help for details.
