Description Zimmer 2007-09-23 14:13:18 UTC
Description of problem:

 Can't build the kernel image after I select the ARP deamon with menuconfig.

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

  2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 

How reproducible:

  Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make menuconfig, then select ARP deamon under the catalog "networking" 
2. make dep;(unecessary for 2.6 kernel); make clean; make bzImage
3. get stalled by error report
  
Actual results:

 1) when "make clean":
  No rule error for "infiniband", then unselect "infiniband" with menuconfig.
  Problem solved at this stage.

 2) when "make bzImage":

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

Expected results:

  Get new kernel image.

Additional info:

  I've queryed bug database before I ask this question. It seems Fedora
  doesn't support custom configuration?
