What I have done so far is uncompressed the kernel to a folder under my home directory
cd linux-2.6.38.2 directory
ran make oldconfig (which asked me a whole bunch of question I didn't know how to answer so I just pushed entire sometimes n or y)
Then I tried to run make
make gave errors?
I retried running make using make V=1 all to see if I could figure out the problem.
I cann't it looks like an n is being appended to my gcc command or something?
