Howgh guys!
I'm, trying to install gentoo on an old laptop. So far everything was fine. I did make menuconfig selected what I think is needed and saved configuration as "kernel.config". I type make && make modules_install and get error log like that

Scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig
You have not yet configured your kernel!
(missing kernel .config file)
Please run some configurator

make[3]: ***[silentoldconfig] Error 1
make[2]: ***[silentoldconfig] Error 2
make[1]: ***No rule to make target 'make'. Stop
make: *** [make] Error 2


What is going on or rather what is NOT going on and what should I do to get my kernel compiled?

Thanks a lot;)

The config is called $kernel_source_dir/.config.
just do a
Code:

yourbox # mv kernel.config .config

In the root dir of the kernel source

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Kernel & Hardware.
Kernel question, so moved here.
