Re: Compilation problem with kernel 2.4.16

[Gowri Satish Adimulam <gowri@bitel.co.kr>]

Hi , your first line of error gives some indication taht your make file
is trying to use conditional compilation based on .config .
hence searching for .config but  it could not find location.

maybe due to the first error , you are getting remaining errors.
