It may be that FC 3 has chflags like *BSD ? chflags can make some
files systems read only. You say that you have SE Linux installed so
it may have something similar. From the OpenBSD man page for chflags:
DESCRIPTION
The chflags utility modifies the file flags of the listed files as speci-
fied by the flags operand. The flags of a file dictate special restric-
tions beyond those enforced by its mode/permissions.

uchg set the user immutable flag (owner or superuser only)
