When it tries to do the chflags command in the kernel installation I get the
error:

chflags: /kernel: Operation not permitted
*** Error code 1 (ignored)
mv /kernel /kernel.old
mv: rename /kernel to /kernel.old: Operation not permitted
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SIREN.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
