I tried to build 2.4.18-3 kernel for kgdb 1.5 setup using instructions below. And #make bzImage failed. I wonder someone who had built kernel for kgdb before could tell what I went wrong. Here is what I did compare with instructions:

I did:
Becuase kernel-source package is in /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-3, I simply
#cp -R linux-2.4.18-3 linux-2.4.18-3-kgdb
I don't know why need to rename the source directory as instructions suggested.

I did:
#cd linux-2.4.18-3-kgdb
#patch -p1 < ~/download/kgdb/linux-2.4.18-kgdb-1.5.patch
at this stage, it went smoothly.

I did:
#make menuconfig
#make dep
these two steps went through smoothly
#make bzImage
