I downloaded the 2.4.3 kernel from Kernel.org and then the IA64 patch from
the ports directory.
I patched the Kernel with the 2.4.3-ia64 diff file.
I can do a 'make mrproper', and a 'make config' (It even recognizes the IA64
CPU), I can even do a
'make dep' but it doesn't let me do a make bzImage or even a make zImage.  I
tried looking in the 
make.rules and makefile to see what targets were options, but didn't find
anything.  What is the target 
make file?

Is there any documentation on this anywhere?
All I am trying to do is add ql1280 SCSI, AMI MegaRAID, and Intel
EtherExpressPro 100, and SMP support
to the Kernel.

One other thing I noticed.  With x86 version, you can select how much memory
the Kernel will recognize
(4GB, 64GB, etc..)  There is 16GB in this server.  Will the Kernel recognize
all of it?  Right now I have to
do a mem=2G from the ELI loader.
