Hey guys, I got a little farther after running make xconfig and save my settings, but I ran into another problem (make had no errors AFAIK): [root at ANTux-P3 i2c-2.6.2]# make install if [ -n " kernel/i2c-core.o kernel/i2c-dev.o kernel/i2c-algo-bit.o kernel/i2c-philips-par.o kernel/i2c-elv.o kernel/i2c-velleman.o kernel/i2c-algo-pcf.o kernel/i2c-elektor.o kernel/i2c-proc.o kernel/i2c-pport.o" ] ; then \ mkdir -p /lib/modules/`grep UTS_RELEASE /usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10/include/linux/version.h|cut -f 2 -d'"'`/misc ; \ install -o root -g root -m 644 kernel/i2c-core.o kernel/i2c-dev.o kernel/i2c-algo-bit.o kernel/i2c-philips-par.o kernel/i2c-elv.o kernel/i2c-velleman.o kernel/i2c-algo-pcf.o kernel/i2c-elektor.o kernel/i2c-proc.o kernel/i2c-pport.o /lib/modules/`grep UTS_RELEASE /usr/src/linux-2.4.7-10/include/linux/version.h|cut -f 2 -d'"'`/misc ; \ fi install: `/lib/modules/2.4.7-10smp' is a directory install: `2.4.7-10BOOT' is a directory install: `2.4.7-10enterprise' is a directory install: `2.4.7-10debug' is a directory make: *** [install-kernel] Error 1 Does this mean my Kernel source, from Red Hat Linux 7.2 CDs, is bad?
