You are not closing this file properly.

Here's how I'd do it

File.open '/tmp/bootfile', 'w' do |out|
   File.foreach '/tmp/grub.conf' do |line|
     if /^\s+kernel\b/ =~ line
       line.gsub! /transparent_hugepage=\w+/, ''
       line.sub! /\s+$/, ''
       line << ' transparent_hugepage=never'
     end

     out.puts line
   end
end

Cheers
