But I didn't change the config; all I did was run 'make menuconfig'
and save. The only reason I did that is because 'make' failed
otherwise.
You say that 'make modules' should work out of the box.
I'd also like 'make clean; make' to work out of the box (so
it's easier to use the kernel build as a benchmark :-)
Is the whole problem that no .config file is shipped with the kernel sources?
Seems like it'd be handy to have a .config file that matches how the
stock RH7.1 kernel was compiled.
