I'm trying to compile a kernel for an embedded-powerpc-linux application. As a first step/training, I followed closely the instructions of the document "The DENX U-Boot and Linux Guide" for a TQM8XXL board, t= hat is to say:

bash$ mrproper
bash$ make TQM823L_config
bash$ make oldconfig
bash$ make dep

After a few minutes of dependency creation, I get the following error "= ;argument list too long":

scripts/mkdep -- `find /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4_devel-2005-10-25-1440/include/= asm /usr/src/linuxppc_2_4

 > .hdepend
scripts/mkdep: argument list too long
make: *** [dep-files] Error 2

Can someone help me understand where that comes from?
Does it have something to do with the fact that I work under WinXP + Cygwin= ?
No need to say that I am a newbie to the Linux world... help me, Wolfgang := -)
