i'm trying to recompile my kernel (2.2.16). I've been running
2.2.12smp, which was installed by default by RH during my 6.1
installation. I've make several recompiles in the past on 2.2.12, but
I've just run into a problem I've never encountered.
When testing the 2.2.16 kernel, it died on a kernel panic. After
tweaking with the .config for a while, I decided to do a fresh install
of 2.2.16. So, I did the following:
tar xfvz linux-2.2.16.tar.gz
mv linux linux-2.2.16
ln -s linux-2.2.16 linux
I then copied my old .config into the new tree and did a make xconfig.
After deciding everything looked okay, I entered make dep with the
following results:
--------
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/arch/i386/boot'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `dep'.

I checked, and sure enough, autoconf.h doesn't exist. What's up with
that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I need to get this
machine operational withe new kernel PDQ.
Thanks!
