I have linux 2.0.6 running. I installed it from the kernel image I got fro ftp.debian.org using dselect. Since it was configured for a different hardware setup than mine I decided to reconfigure. I got a new kernel source 2.0.13 and unpacked it in /usr/src/linux. I also picked up make-kpkg 2.0.3. I ran make config and satisfied my hardware setup. Then ran: make-kpkg -r Custom.1 kernel_image. 40 mins later I get this:
as86 -0 -a -o bootsect.o bootsect.s make[3] as86: command not found. make[3] [bootsect.o] Error 127 make[2] *** [boot] Error 2 make[1] *** [build] Error 2 make: *** [stamp-image] Error 2 as not as86 is in my /usr/sbin. I have not been able to locate as86 Any ideas what am doing wrong? BTW I noticed a new vmlinux that is twice as large as my vmlinuz, so am guessing as86 has something to do with compressing vmlinux.
