Thank you for the assistance! I added the mrproper and install and it worked
flawlessly! Thanks for the info!

  I've always used this as a guide

  http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/install/kupgrade3.html

  Particularly the Makefile edit (INSTALL_PATH) and the addition of 
'make install' (make dep  make clean  make bzImage  make install 
 make modules  make modules_install).  This installs the new kernel 
and makes the proper links for you.  On the cooker list they're sayin 
to _always_, even with virgin source, to run 'make mrproper' first.

   As to failure during make modules, I had it happen once when I 
forgot to enable 'experimental drivers' and had ReiserFS enabled in the 
config.  So it could be you had a conflict in the configuration?

The source that comes with LM-8.0 is not clean. Before you do anything else, do a 
'make mrproper'.
