AFter a make mrproper then make menuconfig I get this: rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm) make -C scripts/lxdialog all make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/scripts/lxdialog' /usr/bin/ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; defaulting to 08048330 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/scripts/lxdialog' /bin/sh scripts/Menuconfig arch/i386/config.in Using defaults found in arch/i386/defconfig Preparing scripts: functions, parsing...............................................................done. and configure stalls there. If I do a make xconfig I get this: rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm) make -C scripts kconfig.tk make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/scripts' cat header.tk >> ./kconfig.tk ./tkparse < ../arch/i386/config.in >> kconfig.tk make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 132 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/scripts' make: *** [xconfig] Error 2 Then I can do a make config and that seems to work ok however I then do a make dep and get: make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/arch/i386/boot' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `dep'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.1-pre10/arch/i386/boot' scripts/mkdep init/*.c > .depend make: *** [dep-files] Error 132 That's about as far as I can go. The computer in question is a Sony SR7K which worked fine on 2.4.0-test12. Can anyone enlighten me as to what the problem is here?
