I'm trying to build a kernel from source using the kernel-source-2.4.19 and the instructions for the Debian standard method at:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-kernel.en.html When I execute make menuconfig, I get the error at the bottom of the session text below. It looks like awk is giving a segmentation fault. This error persists even after I've upgraded mawk and gawk to the versions on testing, and switched simlinks to try both programs. I haven't found anything on this in the mail list archives, so am asking for any tips here. BTW, the error below happened with the .config file from my current kernel as well as below using the default config after I did a 'make distclean'.
