Red face Unable to compile linux-2.6.34 because of make errors


Hi Everyone

I am using a tutorial-How to Compile A kernel-The Mandriva Way that was linked to me in my previous post, to compile the linux-2.6.34 kernel. I am compiling on my Linux localhost 2.6.11-6mdksmp #1 SMP Tue Mar 22 15:40:42 CET 2005 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU
E7400 @ 2.80GHz unknown GNU/Linux.

I did all the steps up until I encountered the following error:
when I executed the make rpm command

[root@localhost linux]# make rpm
HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf
scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig
make clean
set -e; cd ..; ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.6.34 kernel-2.6.34default
/bin/sh /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/scripts/setlocalversion > /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/.scmversion
set -e; cd ..; tar -cz --exclude SCCS --exclude BitKeeper --exclude .svn --exclude CVS --exclude .pc --exclude .hg --exclude .git -f kernel-2.6.34default.tar.gz kernel-2.6.34default/.
set -e; cd ..; rm kernel-2.6.34default
rm -f /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/.scmversion
set -e; \
/bin/sh /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/scripts/mkversion > /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/.tmp_version
set -e; \
mv -f /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/.tmp_version /usr/src/linux-2.6.34/.version
rpm --target i386 -ta ../kernel-2.6.34default.tar.gz
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmb: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [rpm] Error 1
make: *** [rpm] Error 2
[root@localhost linux]#

I am getting confused.

May someone pliz help

Thanks

'/usr/lib/rpm/rpmb' is provided by the package rpm-build.

Besides that, I am not sure you can build a kernel
from last month on the very old Mandrake 10.x . (2004-2005).
