I'm willing to bet that you have a /boot/config-6.10.9-amd64 and also a
/boot/config-6.10.9-i686  or similar, so when you did the cp command, the *
expanded to 2 filenames.  And if there's 3 or more filenames total, the last one needs
to be the target directory to copy the 2+ preceding files into.

Moral of the story - beware of shell metacharacter expansions.
If you're unsure of what's going on, try sticking an 'echo' in front
of the command:

$ echo cp /boot/config-`uname -r`* .config

Having said that, I'm not sure what changes to make to the webpage to
avoid this issue....
