much of the joy of make-kpkg is that you don't have to be root to build
kernels.
% tar jxf /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.14.tar.bz2 -C /tmp
% cd /tmp/kernel-source-2.4.14
% export PATCH_THE_KERNEL=YES
% fakeroot make-kpkg --config=xconfig --revision=loop.1.0 kernel_image
% sudo dpkg -i ../kernel-image-2.4.14_loop.1.0_*.deb
since i'm usually upgrading an existing kernel, i copy /boot/config-2.4.13
(or whatever) into .config before running make-kpkg (and leave out
the "--config=xconfig", since "--config=oldconfig" is what i want then)

somehow you missed a "make dep". you could try "make-kpkg clean" and
then a rebuild. without seeing the relevant parts of the build output
i don't really know what went wrong.
