I tried compiling kernel 2.2.3 (after having upgraded all the necessary
packages, as suggested in /usr/src/linux/Changes) and got the following
error:
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.0.36/arch/i386/lib'

System is AMD k6-3D, 64mb ram. What does the error mean, how to resolve
it?
Thanks for your help
