fs/built-in.o(.data+0x22c4): undefined reference to `adfspart_check_ICS'
fs/built-in.o(.data+0x22c8): undefined reference to `adfspart_check_POWERTEC'
fs/built-in.o(.data+0x22cc): undefined reference to `adfspart_check_EESOX'
fs/built-in.o(.data+0x22d0): undefined reference to `adfspart_check_CUMANA'
fs/built-in.o(.data+0x22d4): undefined reference to `adfspart_check_ADFS'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

It looks like fs/partitions/Kconfig is messed up for one combination.
If ACORN_PARTITION is not set, we won't include any of the partition
support for Acorn formats, so we should not allow them to be selected.

Please try this patch:

Yes. No modules directory for this kernel version...

For linux-2.4.x, you need ....

`make`
`make modules`
`make modules_install`
`make install`
