Please also RTFM: http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual?stickboard=yosemite ,
especially section "6.2. Kernel Configuration and Compilation":
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/LinuxConfiguration#Section_6.2.

Note that I selected the DULG-version  for  a  board  for  which  2.6
kernel support is available.

This is a consequence of wrong make commands.

You must pass correct ARCH= and CROSS_COMPILE= arguments when running
make, i. e.

        make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ... menuconfig

etc. Also make sure to start from a clean  source  tree,  i.  e.  run
"make mrproper" to clean up before configuring your board.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
