I have recently run into some trouble when I recompile my kernel and try
to install it. I have sucessfully done this before on the same machine.
(A Pentium 166MMX running FreeBSD 2.2.7) However, I can now build the
kernel sucessfully but when I type make install I get the following
error message:

mulva# make install
chflags noschg /kernel
mv /kernel /kernel.old
PATH=${PATH}:/sbin:/usr/sbin;  if [ `sysctl -n kern.bootfile` = /kernel
] ; then  sysctl -w kern.bootfile=/kernel.old ;  if [ -f
/var/db/kvm_kernel.db ] ; then  mv -f /var/db/kvm_kernel.db
/var/db/kvm_kernel.old.db ;  fi  fi
kern.bootfile: /kernel -> /kernel.old
install -c -m 555 -o root -g wheel -fschg kernel /
install: invalid option -- f
Try `install --help' for more information.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

 I have been able to do this in the past and I did not install a new
version of install. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
->Benjamin Schurman
