kernel 2.6.9-5 compile error on RedHat ES 4


Just installed RedHat ES 4, and system wouldnt boot using default SMP kernel, so I decided to recompile the 2.6.9-5smp kernel. After doing a make bzImage i get the following error:

[root@host linux]# make bzImage
CHK include/linux/version.h
SPLIT include/linux/autoconf.h -> include/config/*
CHK include/asm-i386/asm_offsets.h
HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/genksyms.o
HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/lex.o
HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/parse.o
HOSTLD scripts/genksyms/genksyms
CC scripts/mod/empty.o
MKELF scripts/mod/elfconfig.h
HOSTCC scripts/mod/file2alias.o
HOSTCC scripts/mod/modpost.o
HOSTCC scripts/mod/sumversion.o
HOSTLD scripts/mod/modpost
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by `init/built-in.o'. Stop.
make: *** [init] Error 2

I have also tried a normal make, re-installting sources, and removing my .config file to get a fresh config (also ran make clean) and still the same exact error. Anyone have any ideas since I cant tell what direction this error leads in? Thanks
