You're trying to compile a stripped-down version of the kernel? You could start trying to compile the default kernel configs that the Debianized kernel source has - if that still fails there are other problems (mkinitrd, etc). Otherwise, you'd have to tweak more your kernel configuration. -- Paolo Alexis Falcone [EMAIL PROTECTED]
