Well it *should* work anyway. The builkernel/installkernel targets are just a little broken if one hasn't updated sources and done make world. And he didn't say if he did update sources or not. Besides, the error he's getting seems a little more serious than your average kernel compile failure. By the way 'Dead Line', what system are you trying this on? What release? And I don't know how to clean up what you've done. Perhaps a make clean in /usr/src/ would work, but I don't know all the things that would result after doing that on the main /usr/src branch. If you had ran make world you would lose all your object files I believe, and I don't think that would be good. Perhaps are you trying to build a kernel after updating your source, but before a make world? You certainly can't do that.
