| With 2.6.x kernels, running "''make''" or "''make all''" instead of "''make bzImage modules''" should be sufficient. This will build the default targets, being //vmlinuz// (the uncompressed kernel), //bzImage// (the compressed kernel which we will be using) and //modules// (all of the kernel modules). Since we do not need the uncompressed kernel I usually stick to the "''make bzImage modules''" command. \\ If you want to know more about the available //make// targets, you can run "''make help''" and examine the output. The default build targets are marked by an asterisk (*). | With 2.6.x kernels, running "''make''" or "''make all''" instead of "''make bzImage modules''" should be sufficient.
