I have compiled dozens of kernels in the last 5 years and am a redhat certified engineer but this has got me. I download the source, do a make menuconfig ; make but its dying during the make, always at the same point. The following is the error output: [snip] AS arch/x86_64/lib/memcpy.o CC arch/x86_64/lib/memmove.o AS arch/x86_64/lib/memset.o AS arch/x86_64/lib/putuser.o AS arch/x86_64/lib/thunk.o CC arch/x86_64/lib/usercopy.o AR arch/x86_64/lib/lib.a GEN .version CHK include/linux/compile.h UPD include/linux/compile.h CC init/version.o LD init/built-in.o LD .tmp_vmlinux1 ld: kernel/built-in.o: No such file: No such file or directory make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 Or more quickly after already having done make, then do make immediately again without cleaning: CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/compile.h CHK usr/initramfs_list GEN .version CHK include/linux/compile.h UPD include/linux/compile.h CC init/version.o LD init/built-in.o LD .tmp_vmlinux1 kernel/built-in.o: file not recognized: File truncated make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 OUTPUT of sh scripts/ver_linux: Linux suigrid54 2.6.4-52-smp #1 SMP Wed Apr 7 01:58:54 UTC 2004 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Gnu C 3.3.3 Gnu make 3.80 binutils 2.15.90.0.1.1 util-linux 2.12 mount 2.12 module-init-tools 3.0-pre10 e2fsprogs 1.34 jfsutils 1.1.5 reiserfsprogs 3.6.13 reiser4progs line xfsprogs 2.6.3 PPP 2.4.2 isdn4k-utils 3.4 nfs-utils 1.0.6 Linux C Library x 1 root root 1396772 Apr 6 2004 /lib64/tls/libc.so.6 Dynamic linker (ldd) 2.3.3 Linux C++ Library 5.0.5 Procps 3.2.1 Net-tools 1.60 Kbd 1.12 Sh-utils 5.2.1 udev 021_bk Modules Loaded snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm snd_page_alloc snd_timer snd_mixer_oss snd soundcore udf iptable_filter ip_tables nls_iso8859_1 nls_cp437 vfat fat sg usb_storage joydev st sr_mod floppy usbserial parport_pc lp parport thermal processor fan button battery ac ipv6 af_packet tg3 ohci_hcd usbcore hw_random evdev subfs dm_mod reiserfs mptscsih mptbase sd_mod scsi_mod I am trying to install this on a dual core 4-way CPU Sun V40z. I successfully installed Susue 9.1 which went very nicely and the BIOS upon reboot sees all 8 cores.
