How to log the kernel compilation process ?

How can I build this kernel (from a portage ebuild ofcurse) gentoo-dev-sources and tell it to save the log of it's actions somewhere ?

Or is it already logged (where)?

To note that I'm looking for the log of a friend because his kernel doesn't compile right.

Thank you.

# script ~/make_all.log
# make all
(....)
# quit

And your log will be in ~/make_all.log.

1st : Cool !!! thnx I loved this.
2nd : Sorry but this is not what i had in mind, this i can achive with a simple 2>&1 no ?

I mean an option where this Makefile saves it's own log, with it's own error messages, not neccessry those that get printed to std-output.[/b]

Use make all V=1 to have the kernel compilation process more verbose. It is probably possible to have it show all the gcc messages without editing the Makefile but I'm not aware of how to do it.
