title: `missing-syscalls' error during kernel compilation
body: <p>These are the steps I am doing to compile the linux source on my machine : <br/>
  1. Copy the config file from /boot to /usr/src/kernels/2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586/ directory <br/>
  2. make oldconfig <br/>
  3. make <br/></p>
  
  <p>Step 3 fails with the following error : 
  make[1]: *** No rule to make target `missing-syscalls'.  Stop.</p>
  
  <p>Compiling on a x86 box. 
  Any suggestions ?
