In my system there's a strange behaviour.... its not allowing me to create
any file in /usr/bin even as root. Its chmod is set to 755. Its even not
allowing me to change the chmod value of /usr/bin. The strangest part which
i felt is ...its shows the owner and group as root when i issue command
"ls -ld /usr/bin" and not allowing root to create any file or directory
under /usr/bin and not even allowing to change the chmod value. The error is
access permission denied... I can change the chmod value of /usr and other
directories under /usr/...but not of bin....

Maybe /usr is mounted read-only?

Hmmm, are distros still 'slicing up' the root file-system? Good point!
