If I try with /usr/src/linux -> linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r1 to run genkernel --menuconfig all I end up with a compilation error: include/asm/page.h:89:2: error: #error "CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START must be a multiple of 2MB" ... * ERROR: Failed to compile the "prepare" target... I have no idea what this value is good for, but since it does not work anymore I changed the Physical_Start from: CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000 to CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x200000 Now genkernel --menuconfig --oldconfig all gives me a working modules_prepare Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -C =gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r1 2. rm -rf /usr/src/linux-2.6.22-gentoo-r1 3. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge =gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r1 4. genkernel all

I also have this problem.

Did you try the newer genkernel versions?
genkernel-3.4.8 hat the same problem. I think the reason lies in: grep PHYSICAL /usr/share/genkernel/x86_64/kernel-config-2.6 CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000
Same problem with gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r2 and genkernel-3.4.8. Same workaround.
OK. I think I have this fixed in SVN.
Please test genkernel 3.4.9_prer1 or better. This should be fixed now.
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r5 compiles fine using sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.9_pre1 for me.
Cool, I figured it would. Thanks!
