mount - How to access efi boot partition as read-write?

I have installed Ubuntu 13.04 alongside windows 8 (efi mode) and now I want to go to a read-write access of the efi boot partition.



For secure boot to work, I installed the Linux Foundation's PreLoader. Then I enabled root account login to access the efi boot partition. I have copied the boot loader, but now the efi boot partition mounts as read-only.




When I try to change the folder permissions, it says:



Error setting permissions:Read-only filesystem


I have already tried the following command in root:



mount -o remount,rw /folder1/folder2/targetFolder



It is still read-only.



How to fix this?
