thanks for the advice but I already use make mrproper, ansd always use make clean after make dep.
This is a mandrake thing, they have added a 3rdparty section, which I cant even past make dep, thats where it fails, I've downloaded the generic kernel patched rc4 and the netrom patch, and it builds and the modules build. There are a few thing in the mdk kernel which make it usefull ie supermount, and thats why I'd rather use it. but it s getting right up my nose the way the demi gods put something in a kernel and dont support it.. it fails every time when trying to make dep at this point make -C 3rdparty fastdep > make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.17-20mdk/3rdparty' > make[2]: *** No rule to make target `fastdep'.
