This version of the kernel source includes a directory /usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r5/linux/ containing precisely one header file: /usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r5/linux/linux/drivers/char/drm/ffb.h This gets in the way of a user-mode-linux build (make ARCH=um), as the target of such a build is a file: /usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r5/linux This directory doesn't seem to exist in any of the vanilla 2.6.11.x source trees I've looked at. Workaround is simply to remove this directory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge "=gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r5" 2. cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r5 3. make ARCH=um menuconfig 4. make ARCH=um Actual Results: Error creating /usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r5/linux executable on final step the vanilla source. Expected Results: Successfully created the user-mode kernel executable.

Please test with 2.6.11-r6 - I think we fixed this already.
Ah yes, the new version seems fine.
