Yes, it seems the root Makefile is being overwritten.

On a cleanly extracted 2.6.10 kernel, when i run "make menuconfig" i get the following:

[root@linux linux-2.6.10]# make menuconfig
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/split-include
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/docproc
  GEN    /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-ck1/Makefile

  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/conf.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/mconf.o
  SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c

  HOSTCC  scripts/lxdialog/textbox.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/lxdialog/util.o
  HOSTCC  scripts/lxdialog/yesno.o
  HOSTLD  scripts/lxdialog/lxdialog

Note the "GEN /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-ck1/Makefile".
Is this the problem?

Thanks again.
