Code:
Mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

You missed that entire step. The system has to be remounted as read/write before anything can be changed.

Some of the new roms have scripts, so before you type that whole bit out, you could try to simply type either "rwsystem" or "sysrw".
