After disabling PCMCIA SCSI adapter support (I don't need it anyway) it compiled successfully.

Another problem:
When I run this kernel X won't start and even the virtual consoles aren't accessible.
After a power off it repairs the filesystem and the system is rebooted automatically after repair.

I tried 2.4.27 and disabled PCMCIA SCSI adapter support too (although 2.4.27 compiles without problems even with it) and it works without problems.
