I tried compiling the 2.6.17-mm6 kernel twice, and got the same error both
times.

Here is the error:
CHK include/linux/compile.h
UPD include/linux/compile.h
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xe282): In function
`cpu_request_microcode':
arch/i386/kernel/microcode.c:544: undefined reference to `request_firmware'
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xe304):arch/i386/kernel/microcode.c:573:
undefined reference to `release_firmware'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

I can send the entire compile log if you need it.

I attached the config. I am compiling this on a Slackware 10.2 system, with
gcc-3.3.6 and make 3.80
