Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade my kernel but I got this.

root@smoker /usr/src/linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r8 # make all && make
modules_install
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/linux/utsrelease.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `n/n', needed by
`firmware/n.gen.o'.  Stop.
make: *** [firmware] Error 2
root@smoker /usr/src/linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r8 #  

I have always used that command but it doesn't usually end like this.  I
think that is right.  What is target 'n/n'?  Am I missing something? 
Kernel version is in the prompt up there too. 

Thanks.

Dale
