Code:
jeff@deepthought jeff $ ls /
--assume-kernel=2.6.5-gentoo  boot  etc   lib         mnt  proc  sbin  tmp  var
bin                           dev   home  lost+found  opt  root  sys   usr


What is the -assume-kernel=2.6.5-gentoo file? I've never seen it except for on this boot. Is it safe to delete?

It looks like a file has been created be accident by some command like

<command> --assume-kernel=2.6.5-gentoo

So its probably fine to remove.

Use the 'file' command to see what kind of file it is. Use 'cat' to see whats in it.
