Anyway...I am trying to rebuild my kernel...When I get to the point where
I need to put the following (in root):

/usr/sbin config MY_KERNEL_NAME

I get:

/usr/sbin : permission denied

My root prompt looks like..."mail#".  I already set my self in the wheel group
also.  Anyone know how to fix this?
