Lemme guess. You're compiling a 2.4 kernel, and you enabled PCMCIA support in
the kernel, right? That happened to me, too, and I eventually fixed it, but it
seems like the PCMCIA stuff in 2.4 doesn't work properly anyways, so you'll
probably want to disable the kernel PCMCIA, recompile, and everything should be
fine.
But if you want to try out the kernel PCMCIA stuff, I fixed it by editing the
Makefile. It looks that particular directory is stuff that is supposed to be
part of the kernel, so the Makefile is two parts. If you select to compile the
kernel PCMCIA part, then the first bit of the Makefile is used, which basically
prints out a warning that it won't compile the files in that directory, and
quits. Unfortunately, the first bit is lacking an "install" rule, which is
what causes the error, but I think you can just add an "install" rule, with no
actions.
