unable to root read only android file system tmobile springboard

[jeffyount76]

I can't seem to get any rooting programs to work they all say that nothing can copy read only file system and I can't even get the # from su on adb . When my computer recognizes my springboard as a CD drive. All the drivers are installed and debugging is checked...unknown sources are checked. I've tried with MTP on and off. I've tried to flash clockwork recovery in fast boot mode and still nothing...if someone has experienced this please help if possible. Thanks in advance

which one do you have? the 7" or the 10"? this way i can move you to the appropriate forum, where folks more familiar with the device can help you out.
