I next tried: #make-kpkg clean #fakeroot make-kpkg --revision=usb.1.0 \ kernel_image after many screens, the last few lines were: lippo/linux/arch/i386/lib/lib.a \ --end-group \ -o vmlinux net/network.o(.data+0x57c4): undefined reference to `sysctl_ipx_pprop_broadcasti ng' make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/lippo/linux' make: *** [stamp-build] Error 2 l I would like some help understanding this. tia philip baratta
