I have one server that I can not edit the /etc/grub/grub.conf file. I get permission denied as root. I can change other files just not grub.conf. after unmounting /dev/hda from /boot and mounting under /g for a test the same things occurs. Even in single mode I can not modify / delete / move the file. When umounted I did a fsck on it and all is fine. also can not edit menu.lst which links to grub.conf. what am I missing?
