This thread is a few days old, so I'll repost a bit of the make dep output, and where it bombs.

As are you, I'm not a kernel guru either. Though it looks as if there are issues autoconf.h which is needed by signal.ver. And thats about as much as I know.... <grin>
Running a home server on a below average box, so I'd like to slim down the kernel.
