Description Michael Orr 2006-01-26 22:19:46 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
'make xxxconfig' (xconfig, menuconfig, oldconfig) all work OK.  'make rpm' or 'make bzImage' dies with the following error:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by `init/built-in.o'.  Stop.
make: *** [init] Error 2

I have done 'make mrproper' and 'make distclean'.  I have copied /boot/ config-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 as .config without modification.  These do not resolve the problem.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.141.1656_FC4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make menuconfig
2. make bzImage
3.
  

Actual Results:  make bzImage

looks like you're not building from the src.rpm, but the -devel package.

According to the Fedora 4 Release Notes
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc4/errata/#sn-kernel):

7.2.2.2. Kernel Flavors

Fedora Core includes the following kernel builds:

    *

      Native kernel, in both uniprocessor and SMP varieties.

      Configured sources are available in the kernel-devel-<version>.<arch>.rpm
package.
    *

      Virtual kernel for use with the Xen emulator package.

      Configured sources are available in the
kernel-xen0-devel-<version>.<arch>.rpm package.

Sources for both kernel flavors may be installed at the same time. The files
will be installed into the /usr/src/kernels/<version>[-xen0]-<arch>/ tree. Use
the command:

rpm -Uvh kernel-devel[-xen0]-<version>.<arch>.rpm
