The correct command to mount the drive with the required parameters is: C. mount -o remount,rw /newdisk Explanation: mount: This command is used to mount filesystems in Linux. -o remount,rw: This option remounts the filesystem in read-write mode. It's necessary here because the issue seems to be related to users being unable to create directories or files, which suggests that the disk might have been mounted as read-only. /newdisk: This is the mount point where the new disk is mounted. By using the -o remount,rw options, we ensure that the disk is remounted with read-write permissions, allowing users to create directories and files on the mount point /newdisk
