Hi All,

I am trying to compile Kernel 2.6.31 with arm-linux-gcc3.2.2 for s3c2440a, but I am not able to perform the task.

I am using Redhat 9


firstly i am using the following commands

$make s3c2410_defconfig // there is no error in execution of this command

next i run

$make

CC kernel/uid16.o
CC kernel/module.o
