freebsd security - Nov 2003 - really clean install?

Good evening, I was finish the FreeBSD4.9 installation from CD, and only do some
edit with the /etc/rc.firewall, /etc/rc.conf, /boot/defaults/loader.conf, and
recompiling the kernel to support my ext2 backup harddisk, with sndcard support
too.

This's a old laptop (ibm380z), i have chkrootkit warning after all finished,
i attached my uname -a, dmesg, pkg_info and chkrootkit result, please guide me
whether my machine have problem? or it's a bug?

Sorry I just play with HandBook for a month, I'm totally newbie who afraid
is hacked, please help!

Thanks in advance!

Try using chkrootkit-0.42b from http://www.chkrootkit.org/. I suspect
what you're seeing is just a bug in 0.41 . 0.42b on a new FreeBSD 4.9
install of mine finds no problems.
