Hello,
having just set-up a new sarge unstable system with minimal setup I
installed the kernel-sources and went out to compile the kernel:

athlon-xp:/usr/src/linux# make modules_install
if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System
.map
2.6.14.2-skas3-v8.2; fi

So - what's that for an error-message? Google didn't find anything related.

and
make bzImage
ends with this:

arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.c:67: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to
incomplete type 'struct tss_struct'
arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.c:71: warning: implicit declaration of function
'__fix_to_virt'
arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.c:71: error: 'FIX_VSYSCALL' undeclared (first
use in this function)
make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

All I need is a kernel that is small and compact - which the regular
kernel-image is not. I'm compiling my own kernels since quite a while, but
never had that kind of error.

Help me , please!

You might want to take a look at make-kpgk.

Thank you very much!

I didn't understand much of it, but it gave me the idea to use unstable's
kernel-source archive and not the one from kernel.org - and for whatever
reason: Now it compiles.
