Sonds like someone's having another Miltown Moment.
So Mr. Gomez, you posted to the wrong list, eh? *hand-slap* *hand-slap*

Now you're on the right one so....apparently you are trying to
reconfigure your kernel. You should not try to edit the binary located
in / as it is very difficult to figure out what you are doing there.
Unless you are a mutant. I believe the URL below will help you in this
endeavor:
