OK. Thanks, Mike. I'll try that. I got the sources from the ISO image, I
guess. I d/l'd them, burnt the CD's and loaded the whole ball o' wax on. All
I was doing was making a custom kernel -- I don't need GigaBit Enet or
Bluetooth, etc.

I read about the mrproper target. I didn't read it until after I had done
the compile initially. So should I just rewind, and do that first, before I
do the clean dep bzImage....?
