If you pulled just the kernel source, make sure you run config WITHOUT the -n parameter. > The errors I get are the errors having to do with line 82 of the param.c > file.

Thanks If you have a make world problem, then we need to resolve that first. You need to build a new config before you can build a new kernel. You can also use the 'Upgrade' procedure in the install floppy -- just back up /etc first!
