This is just a personal opinion, and maybye it is uneducated, but is there really some reason for the kernel to be installed chmod 555, wouldn't 544 or even maybye 444 do (I'm not to familiar with the bootloader, I would guess that it doesn't execute /kernel in the same way a coff binary is executed so permissions probably don't matter hunh?)help
