1. filesystem.a not getting built in 1.1.94 - please help

I am trying to update from 1.1.68 to 1.1.94 and am having a problem
I can't seem to find.

I unpacked the source into /usr/src/linux-1.1.94, changed the
link from linux -> linux-1.1.68 to linux -> linux-1.1.94.

I then copied the drivers/scsi/aic7xxx.h & .c to the new
source and edited the config.in and hosts.c to change from
aha247x to aic7xxx. Did the make dep and make clean then
tryed the make zImage.

The make failed with an error message:

     ld: No such file or directory for fs/filesystems.a
     make: *** [vmlinux] Error1

I captured the output from make to a file and found this:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-1.1.94/include ......
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-1.1.94/include ......
ld -r -o fs.o open.o  ..... filesystems.o dcache.o
rm -f filesystems.s
set -e; for i in ; do \
  test ! -d $i || \
    {make -C $i; ar rcs filesystems.a $i/$i.o; } done
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-1.1.94/fs'
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-1.1.94/net'

up in the middle of the file, and then at the end:

make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-1.1.94/arch/i386/mm'
ld -qmagic -Ttext 0xfffe0 arch/i386/kernel/head.o .... \
        arch/i386/kernel/kernel.o ....  \
        fs/filesystems.a \
        drivers/block/block.a ...... \
        /usr/src/linux-1.1.94/lib/lib.a -o vmlinux

Please help me figure out what I did wrong.

Thanks.
