Then I ran make (without oldconfig) and got make[4]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 1 make[3]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 2 make[2]: *** No rule to make target `include/config/auto.conf', needed by `include/config/kernel.release'. Stop. make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 In the past make would always run oldconfig automatically. -Andi -- ak@linux.intel.com -- Speaking for myself only.
