I am compiling kernel 2.4.0, and I am getting the following error
during the 'make install' part of the build:

ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_task.o init/main.o init/version.o \

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot'
ld: cannot open binary: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [bbootsect] Error 1
make: *** [install] Error 2

I have checked all assembler packages, and they all seem to be installed.
I am running Debian sid and all packages are up-to-date.

Can anyone help me with this error?

Thanks in advance
