unable to link 2.4.2

[Pierfrancesco Caci]

Hi there, can someone please tell me what's going wrong with my
compilation of 2.4.2 ?

make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot'
ld -m elf_i386 -Ttext 0x0 -s -oformat binary bbootsect.o -o bbootsect
ld: cannot open binary: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [bbootsect] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot'
make[1]: *** [bzImage] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux'
