Kernel compile error
 

i downloaded kerne 2.5.9, and everytime i try and do a makebzImage, i get an ERROR 2 message. this usually happens with ALL kernels i download and try to install.

And I bet you got Re-cursive error message as well.
Guess what it doesn't say anything to anybody here, please be more specific, kernel compile isn't a prescription it is a task you muyst accomplish yourself with a general (and sometimes very detailed) help from the files in /usr/src/linux/Documentation directory.
