I'm getting the following error while doing make:

Code:

make clean && make && make modules_install install

see if the make clean step fixes it. Also, are you using genkernel or hand built?

After make install, you have to make sure you change grub to point to /boot/vmlinuz.

Thanks I tried that and it didn't work. I'm compiling it myself. Any other ideas? I'm installing so I have to get a working kernel.
