The problem is because the kernel headers have not been identified by the
dev86 installation. Make sure you have the elks kernel installed. For the
rest of this messate I will assume you have it installed in /usr/src/elks.
Change to /usr/bcc/include (or /usr/local/bcc/include if it is installed
there, and do the following.
# rm -rf linuxmt arch
# ln -sf /usr/src/elks/include/linuxmnt .
# ln -sf /usr/src/elks/include/arch .
This will link the kernel headers in and make your build work.
make comb, which only works as root, will build an image file called comb
which is a 720K disk image which includes a bootable kernel. This can
be written to a floppy, or used as a floppy image for various PC emulators.
It is primarily there to make it easy for me to build the release
distribution, and for others to be able to duplicate what I did.
