MDK 8.1-2.4.8kernel. All I want to do is recompile for my Athlon from my present kernel sources and disable some of the stuff I don't need. I ran
'make xconfig' and made the changes I wanted, saved the .config file, then ran 'make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install'.
I was having errors related to ATM, so I reconfigured without it, but now I keep getting this:

make[2]: ***[loop.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.8/drivers/block'
make[1]: ***[_modsubdir_block] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.4.8/drivers'
make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2

Point me in the right direction please.

You cant enable Loopback on 2.4.8 kernel its famous loop bug ;-)

Better get the latest kernel 2.4.17 or disable loopback
;)
