A few things: It looks like a makefile problem to me, try making a backup of your makefile, and in the original change the line that says "cp k2.exe /winprg/winboard" to "cp gnuchess.exe /winprg/winboard". Keep in mind here that I'm only guessing, and I don't have Linux to try this out on, there's probably several lines in the makefile along those imediate lines so it might error out on those too, there's also several different makefiles, so maybe try one of the others, good luck.
