[gentoo-user] BUG 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 does not compile

[gentoo-user] BUG 2.6.17-gentoo-r8 does not compile

[Helmut Jarausch]

Hi,

gentoo doesn't seem to like me.
Trying to install gentoo, I did

USE="-doc symlink" emerge gentoo-sources

After menuconfig
make
terminates due to a shell syntax error.
Are the gentoo kernel patches buggy?

Many thanks for hint,

Hi,

I don't know if it's relevant but as the installation guide says, I do 'make
&& make modules_install'.
Otherwise you could try to use genkernel, just to see if kernel sources are
corrupted.

hint:  posting an exact copy of the output from your terminal would
probably get you more help ;)

Who knows? Maybe if the error message wasn't considered Top Secret,
someone would be able to shed some light on the cause.

I've compiled and am running -r8 on x64, amd64 and PPC systems with no
such messages, secret or otherwise.

Don't let your mind wander, it's too little to be let out alone.
