I am trying to install Linux on 386 DX 40  with a CDROM
Installed OK but on reboot was not able to find the CDROM. So from WWW
resources found I needed to compile a custom kernel. I used the
install disk and at LILO prompt mounted /dev/hda2 which is the
partition I am using. Came up OK (with some errors)  and can read from
the CDROM but when in directory /usr/src after setting the required
linkages between files 

"make config"  comes back with error 
" make: *** No rule to make target 'config'. 

a search for "makefile"  comes up with nothing.

pretty annoying to get sooo close.

The linux version is from book "LInux unleashed" 1.1.18
