Description Drew Larson 2010-01-19 00:29:15 UTC

Compiling zen-sources. Install went fine (sys-kernel/zen-sources-2.6.33_rc4_p1) but that one command is erroneous I believe.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge
2.zen-sources-2.6.33_rc4_p1
3.type make && make modules_install

Actual Results:  
make errors out.

Expected Results:  
compile!

use "make; make modules_install". it works.

Wrong. It's perfectly valid. You're just using a bad kernel source.

Do not report bugs with zen-sources on bugs.gentoo.org -- use the zen-sources website.

"make && make modules && make modules_install && make install" is how it used to be for 2.4 kernels.

Nothing wrong with the documentation; user problem. Closing.
