HD Install :: edit menu.lst after frugal installation

Hello,

I have made a frugal installation of DSL into a partition in my HD. Now I want to edit the grub menu.lst, but I don`t know how. I mean, it`s a only read file. Is there somethig I am missing?
Thanksssssssssss.

yes, you have to edit it as root.

Right click on the icon of Emelfm, select Emelfm as root.
search the menu.lst and you can edit it.

It is still a Read Only file. I can't edit the file.

You don't edit the menu.lst that's in the filesystem, you edit the one that's in the /boot/grub directory on the root of the installed partition. So it would be located somewhere like /mnt/hda1/boot/grub/menu.lst.

That's it. You're sooo right. I did not realize it. Thanks a lot.

One thing to take into account: I have my DSL CD Image stoted in my hda partition. This is mounted after boot a
up as /cdrom, so this is where I found my menu.lst to edit.
