Subject:   can't chflags/mv current kernel

I rolled the dice and it looks like I can use 2 NICs in the old doorstop
after all, so I'll still be working on trying to configure NAT.

I compiled a new kernel to support the second NIC, and now I'm having a
more fundamental problem: I cannot touch the old/current kernel.

# make install
chflags noschg /kernel
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

What is this a symptom of?

It's not covered in the Handbook and I have never had it happen before.
The default kernel was removed just fine. Doesn't matter if I'm in
single-user mode or not; the kernel is untouchable.
