Thanks Colin! That got me a little farther along in the process. In case anyone else is looking here in the future, I also had to tweak my PATH. Instead of using this command from the docs:
$ export PATH=$(pwd)/prebuilts/gcc/darwin-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.6/bin:$PATH (from http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html#downloading-a-prebuilt-gcc) I changed it to this: $ export PATH=$(pwd)/prebuilts/gcc/darwin-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.9/bin:$PATH I wonder if it might be a good idea to add a couple columns to the table here [ http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html#figuring-out-which-kernel-to-build] that tell you the appropriate ARCH, CROSS_COMPILE and PATH for each kernel. Thoughts? Thanks again!
