Subject:   cant chflags noschg /kernel in any mode
Message-ID:  <F267dkSmLAztxc1o8yf000005dd@hotmail.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
i boot to single user mode, but i cant do anything to my kernel. as root i 
dont seem to have permission to write or move it. i tried to chmod 755 it, 
but cant.

ls -lo shows /kernel permissions r-xr-xr-x and schg.

i boot normally,become super user, try chflags noschg /kernel, i get 
operation noy permitted. i boot and login as root, same thing. i boot to 
single user mode, same thing. i try to chmod, i get "read-only file system" 
message. i raise securelevel from single user -1 to 0 and still get same 
messages.

im trying to install MYKERNEL, but make installkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL fails 
because it cant remove this immutable bit and cant mv /kernel -> 
/kernel.old. i did a make buildworld, and a make buildkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL 
that worked without error.

what am i missing or doing wrong here?
