[Plug] Kernel Compile problem



In order to attempt to get Appletalk to work, I started trying to customize the
kernel a bit.

I thought things were going pretty smoothly, then Make quit, saying it can't
find 'entry symbol_start'.

Here's a nice piece of 'tail' (sorry):

< snip >
-Non-GCC header of 'system'
Compressed size 20.
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.0.36/include -traditional -c head.S
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.0.36/include -O2 -DSTDC_HEADERS   -c misc.c -o misc.o
ld -qmagic -Ttext 0xfe0 -o vmlinux head.o misc.o piggy.o

Any tips would be welcome; Thanks in advance.
