 make [2]: as86: Command not found
 --- CUT 
 Did I do anything wrong?  What's is 'as86'?  Is there any extra package
 I should install to accomplish the job?
 

as86 is the Intel Assembler.  You need this to compile the boot loader which
initially loads the kernel.  it is found in the bin86 package.

 Hi, Everybody:
 
 I am trying to customize my kernel.  Basically, I followed the
 instruction on Debian FAQ.  After 'make menuconfig', I typed in
 
 make-kpkg --revision Custom.1 kernel_image


make-kpkg --revision=Custom.1 kernel_image
^  
Add an equals sign.


 
 It didn't finish the job.  The last couple lines of message are as
 follows:
 
 make [2]: as86: Command not found
 make [2]: *** [bbootsect.o] Error 127
 make [2]: Leaving directory
 `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.34/arch/i386/boot'
 make [1]: *** [bzImage] Error 2
 make [1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.34'
 make: *** [build] Error 2
 
 Did I do anything wrong?  What's is 'as86'?  Is there any extra package
 I should install to accomplish the job?
 
 Thank a lot!
