ADB Error

Hi,
I'd like to root my phone (Lenovo S60, Android 5.0.2), but there are some errors.

When I write to CMD:
adb push su /system/bin == adb: error: failed to copy 'su' to '/system/bin/sh': Read-only file system

So I did this:
adb shell
su == /system/bin/sh: su: not found

I thought, it doesn't matter:
mount -o rw,remount /system == mount: Permission denied

I can't do anything.... Can you help me, please?

Welcome to our AndroidForums, @Adam78963.

Yeah, you can't modify the /system partition unless it's put (remounted) in read-write mode as you tried.

And you can't do that unless you are rooted ;) :p.

You need to find a root exploit/utility/method for your particular device (I'm not at all familiar with Lenovo's, so I can't be of much help in that regard).
