As Kris has already told you, there is no such command as `chattr' in FreeBSD. > chmod u+x NEWKERN Ah! Now we're (maybe) getting somewhere - the file NEWKERN is simply a text file - it contains configuration parameters for building a kernel. It is not in and of itself executable. If you set the execute bit and try to run it, your shell will spew out loads of `command not found' errors. > let me know if you have any ideas.,thanks Read these chapters in the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html The first is useful if you are just trying to build a new kernel. If you are trying to update the whole system, read the latter.
