I just changed the permissions to 755 and it's running as we 'speak,' so
I'll keep you posted.
An interesting aside...
When it didn't work the first time, I thought "what the heck, I'll try it
using the "hard link" method. When I started the run, I got nothing but row
upon row of error messages. Obviously they were flashing by a bit quickly,
but I did see a lot of "already exists" messages.
When it finished, my /usr/src directory was completely empty. I just
installed the kernel source, and recreated the file structure, so it was no
big deal. But it did give me a start.
This is disturbing to me. You didn't point the SANDROOT variable to
/usr/src, did you? That would be not a good thing. I should probably mention
in the wiki something about making it a *new* directory that doesn't already
exist.
I don't see how the script otherwise could wipe out the contents of
/usr/src/. Can you be a bit more specific about what you did initially to
create this symptom?
