kernel compile errors on slack

[ericn]

ok
got slack installed on the old P166 but i am unable to compile a new kernel. did the make mrproper, make xconfig, make clean and then when I do make bzImage I get :
In file included from /usr/include/errno.h:36
from scripts/split-include.c:26:
/usr/include/bits/errno.h:25: linux/errno.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [scripts/split-include] error 1

can anyone help me? i get the same error with 2.2.19 and 2.4.5.
bummer
thanks
eric

why do a make clean after make xconfig ???
I would do a make dep and make install

do it in this order: make menuconfig && make dep && make clean && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install

Delete the "linux" symlink in the kernel source directory, then make a new one pointing to the source tree you are using (ie..... ln -s linux-2.4.5 linux).
Default on Slack8 is linux-2.2.19 source tree unless you did something
custom.
