Fedora 17 Kernel Updates

[Stephen Morris]

Hi,
     When I run a Fedora 17 Repository update and a new kernel has been 
introduced, the updating of the kernel implements a grub2 update. In 
order to do this grub update the process invokes /sbin/grubby, which 
fails with an access denied failure.
     Why does grubby fail with this error when the repository update is 
running in root mode under sudo or su?
     Correct me if I am wrong, but I though grubby was for updating 
legacy grub, hence why is the process invoking grubby at all for a grub2 
update?

regards,
Steve
