make menuconfig problem

make menuconfig problem

[jqhu]

I'm compiling kernel 2.6.22 downloaded from kernel.org.  When running "make
menuconfig", it says:
  scripts/kconfig/conf arch/ppc/Kconfig
  #
  # using defaults found in /boot/config-2.6.3-7mdksmp
  #

So by default it's using the config file in /boot directory, which is not
correct.
  
I checked the source directory and notice that there's no .config file
present.  Could anybody tell me what I should do on this?

Thanks!

make menuconfig problem

[Tim Spriggs]

I got this when I selected the alsa branch of the kernel configuration
with kernel 2.5.40:

| Menuconfig has encountered a possible error in one of the kernel's
| configuration files and is unable to continue.  Here is the error
| report:
|
|  Q> ./scripts/Menuconfig: line 823: MCmenu74: command not found
|
| Please report this to the maintainer <mec@shout.net>.  You may also
| send a problem report to <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>.
|
| Please indicate the kernel version you are trying to configure and
| which menu you were trying to enter when this error occurred.
|
| make: *** [menuconfig] Error 1
|

If there is anything I can do to help fix this, let me know.

Hi Tim,

Configure the kernel in X (make xconfig) or edit .config by hand. I've 
started looking at this, but I presume one of the ALSA developpers will have 
this minor issue fixed before I even found where to look :)
