hi

well /usr/src/linux/include/asm/ points to asm-i386/ which seems ok to me.
by any chance, does the 2.4.x kernel need glibc2.2?

cheers

are you compiling from the "official" kernel sources, or from some
kernel-source rpm.

If from the tarballs on kernel.org, you will need to symlink
usr/src/linux/include/asm/ to the correct architecture.

I know this one `cause it bit me in the butt more than once.
