I just tested to verify that this works: uname -p i686 rm -f .config make oldconfig # Using defaults found in configs/kernel-2.4.20-i686.config "make mrproper" was the missing step, the .config file would seem to be a non issue. Unless of course you were trying to build for an i386 on an i686 machine. (for example.) In that case, you would want to copy the correct config file to .config, which would then be used by default. Glad you got it sorted out. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+sesZn/07WoAb/SsRAl4hAJ4gX7pFKGUfipeOin2OenDJLljq7QCfVH72 2f8LFjStxfichweW6a/KPkc= =hFds -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
