In final stage of compiling kernel 2.2.3 under RHL 5.2 (image making) i
got two errors... as86 and ld86 not found...
I have only as and ld installed and can't find those as86 and ld86.  I
tried as and ld, but they don't support
command line arguments as set in Makefile.

Any idea where to get them or how to fix this error ?

Secondly, sounds like Martin's missing bin86, the app which provides the
assembler and assembly linker for Linux.  Reinstall it and see what
happens.

But for the fellow below, deboot, I don't know if you're getting the same
erorr messages as Martin, but if you are, then try what I suggested to
him, but if not, then have you done the necessary upgrades?  Check the
README for the things you needed to upgrade before trying to compile the
kernel.
