I hope you were running a recent kernel at this point, and copied its config to .config before you ran 'make oldconfig' ? > .... > * > * Random Number Generation > * > Pseudo Random Number Generation for Cryptographic modules > (CRYPTO_ANSI_CPRNG) [N/m/y/?] n > # > # > configuration written to .config > # > > I ran into trouble: > > root:/sources/linux-2.6.32.8# make > scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig > 2.6.32.8/usr/bin/ld:warning:cannotfindentrysymbol_start > /bin/sh: defaultingto080480b8: command not found > make: *** [include/config/kernel.release] Error 127 > root:/sources/linux-2.6.32.8# vim README > root:/sources/linux-2.6.32.8# > > In the archives of the past 3/4 months, I couldn't find anything which might > give me a hint to what the problem is. > Is there anybody around, pls, to put me straight. > -- That output is a bit mixed up, as well as missing whitespace, which makes it rather hard to work out what the actual error is [ defaulting to 080480b8 from ld is just a warning ]. Possibly, it's saying that /bin/sh is missing or broken. Please check your /bin/sh symlink. If it exists, try opening a new shell with /bin/sh and see what error you get.
