Can anyone tell me why I keep getting this message when I try to 'make menuconfig' on my system to try to recompile my kernel. I also get the same basic error message when trying to 'make dep' so therefore I cannot properly recompile my kernel :(( Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW It was suggested to me that I edit Makefile, but as I am not that far along in my learning of C programming, I dont know what needs edited, if anything, which my first guess tells me it is not a problem with the Makefile or it would have been well documented by now.
