I did a frugal hd install. I tried to edit the boot/grub/menu.lst file, it keep saying it is read-only file system. I don't know how to fix this. I tried chmod, it didn't work.

Help anyone?

Sounds like you're trying to edit the wrong file (ie - the knoppix image). Here's what works for me:

Code Sample

mount /mnt/hda1
then edit /mnt/hda1/boot/grub/menu.lst
