Look into /usr/src you should have your kernel in the src. You need to do a symlink call linux that point to /usr/src/linux-2.4.19 or whatever kernel you have.


ex : ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.4.19 linux

then try back. By default when you emerge a kernel it should be there maybe you remove it ??

I did that.. but still the same..
all I have in the /usr/src is a folder called linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9
ps, I did, remove the linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r5 folder that was there originally, and there was a folder called linux there, but I remove that too to save room.. but what now.. since I removed them??

I got it, thanks..

I think he means the /usr/src/linux symlink

to update it:

cd /usr/src
rm linux
ln -s linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9 linux

this asumes u r using r9, and if u emerge sync'ed this moth you prolly are

if you having the same problem as me, just do that.. it works..
