Umm, you can't 'make' a header file.

To use make you do 'make' from a directory that contains a file called either 'makefile' or 'Makefile'.

What exactly is it you're trying to do?

The command works if you cd into the linux-2.4.22 folder. If you're somewhere else you'll get the error you describe.
