I raised a problem with kernel compiles in an addendum to bugzilla bug 105979. It was pointed out that the problem (shown below) is caused by a workaround to kernel 2.4 build system limitations. Does anyone know a simple way to get the 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl kernel to build in Fedora 095 on the i386 platform? This is a bare-metal install of 095.
The problem I'm having is shown here:
# cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl # make clean # make mrproper # make menuconfig # make dep # make

run 'make oldconfig' again, and it usually sorts itself out.
