Running into some problems installing CouchSurfer Lite on ATV 1gen.

Got to to point where I succesfully copy "CouchSurfer-Lite3x.tar" into the /Users/frontrow/ folder.
ssh command "tar -xvpf CouchSurfer-Lite3x.tar" worked fine.
Problems occurs when trying to move the folder.
Command line "/System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/PlugIns/" ask for a password.
I haven't seen any password mentioned on any forum, so I figured it was "frontrow" again.
Then I get the error "Read-only file system"

Code:
login as: frontrow
frontrow@192.168.0.15's password:

-bash-2.05b$ sudo mv CouchSurfer.frappliance /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/PlugIns/
Password:
mv: rename CouchSurfer.frappliance to /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/PlugIns/CouchSurfer.frappliance: Read-only file system
-bash-2.05b$

Any idea where I made a mistake?
Thanks

Not that familiar with the ATV file system specifically, but try doing sudo before your rename.
