strange... umount /var/tmp/genkernel (and that way make it use the / fs) made it work. And that strange since it has worked before.
genkernel on /var/tmp/genkernel type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nodev,noatime,mode=700,nr_inodes=64K,size=100M) Specifically, the noexec... that's the problem... Glad to see that you figured it out.
