If you are ABSOLUTELY SURE (and i mean this!) the partition is correct ,
and mounts ok readonly, you can change it to read/write this way

mount -o remount,rw /mountpoint

(Where mountpoint is where the drive is currently mounted, NOT the device
name)

ps: never ever screw with mtab, the ONLY valid thing to do with it is
remove it if it has junk in it, and do that only when you are going to
reboot immediatly after...
