Kernel Compiling Error Message

[Pleiades]

Compiled the kernel on the 486 last night (took forever), optimising it as a firewall. At the end of it all, I got this message:

make[1]: as86: Command not found
make[1]: *** [bootsect.o] error 127
make[1]: leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.2.14/arch/i386/boot'
make: *** [zImage] Error 2

What could it mean?

I missed all the start up stuff when I rebooted (had to get ready for work!), but when I shut it down, I noticed a heap of the services that I had said 'n' to were not there, so at least some success was had, it would appear.

Cheers.

apt-get install bin86

if you're not using debian/stormx then download bin86 from somewhere.

Ah yes, the distro might have been useful http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/smile.gif Apolgies.

Thanks sincka.

RH 6.2 . What is bin86?
