System Integrity Protection(SIP) aka rootless is a new security feature in OS X 10.11. By default it disables even the administrator to access/modify the root. Follow these steps to disable SIP:

  1. Restart your Mac.

  2. Before OS X starts up, hold down Command-R and keep it held down until you see an Apple icon and a progress bar. Release. This boots you into Recovery.

  3. From the Utilities menu, select Terminal.

  4. At the prompt type exactly the following and then press Return:

     csrutil disable

  5. Terminal should display a message that SIP was disabled.

  6. From the  menu, select Restart.

You can re-enable SIP by following the above steps, but using csrutil enable instead.
