troble with compiling kernek 2.4.2

[San Segkhoonthod <sans@webzone.net>]

Hi,
I'm having troble with compiling kernel 2.4.2. here is the error:

nm vmlinux | grep -v '\(compiled\)\|\(\.o$\)\|\( [aUw]
\)\|\(\.\.ng$\)\|\(LASH[RL]DI\)' | sort > System.map
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/san/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[1]: *** [bbootsect] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/san/linux/arch/i386/boot'
make: *** [bzImage] Error 2


Here are the steps I did:

bzip2 -dc linux-2.4.2.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
cd linux
cp ../config-2.4.2 .config
make menuconfig
make dep
make bzImage
// fail here


I'm on unstable with
    - 2.4.1 kernel,
    - modutils 2.4.2-1,
    - util-linux 2.10s-2.
    - gcc 2.95.3
    - binutils 2.10.91.0.2-2
    - bin86 0.15.4-1

Has anybody ever experienced something like this? Or I missed something?
Any helps would be appreciated.
thanks,
san
