If your shell is running in dom0 and root can't alter system files, then
has your / filesystem been mounted as read-only? This can happen if a
problem was encountered during boot.

Running 'mount' command by itself will tell you if / was mounted as
read-only. If so, you can try re-mounting it with the '-o remount,rw'
options.
