Make Config Does Not Work!

[Brian Armstrong <barmstro@werewolf.net>]

I look forward to hearing from someone who can offer help on making
"make config" work.

I followed the instructions of
http://www.us.debian.org/doc/FAQ/debian-faq-11.html, "The Debian
GNU/Linux FAQ: Debian and the kernel."

    Installed:  gcc, libc6-dev, bin86, binutils, and gawk.
    Executed:  dpkg --install kernel-package_VVV_all.deb
    Read:  "/usr/doc/kernel-package/README
    Typed:    make config which resulted in the following:

                    make:***No rule to make target config!  Stop.

    Typed:    make menuconfig, same result as above
    Typed:    make xconfig, same result as above

I am trying to setup Debian Linux 2.0.34.  I need to add sound and
remove the old ftape module.

Thank you in advance.
