(First off, I don't have a directory called /usr/src/usr.sbin/config, but I assume you mean wherever I have the source code - in my case, /usr/src/3.0-STABLE/usr.sbin/config.) The error message when I type "/usr/sbin/config [kernel]" says, "WARNING: version of config(8) does not match kernel! Config version = 300009, version required = 300007". I'm guessing this means that perhaps config is okay, but the kernel version is too old? Does this make sense? How would I fix this?
