You do not have the MYKERNEL variable set. You MUST see the variable
listed if you use the `set` command. No need to to it if you have not set
it properly.

Are you using the backticks ` which are not at all the same as the single
quote ' or double qoute " character.

Copy and past the following lies to a terminal session and let us known
what you get:


MYNAME=`uname -a`
MYKERNEL=`uname -r`
export MYNAME MYKERNEL
set|grep MY


It should look like:

[mythtv at saruman ~]$ MYNAME=`uname -a`
[mythtv at saruman ~]$ MYKERNEL=`uname -r`
[mythtv at saruman ~]$ export MYNAME MYKERNEL
[mythtv at saruman ~]$ set|grep MY
MYKERNEL=2.6.9-1.681_FC3
MYNAME='Linux saruman.hugo.vanderkooij.org 2.6.9-1.681_FC3 #1 Thu Nov 18 15:10:10 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux'
_=MYKERNEL
