2.0.36 compile prob

[Graham Ashton <graz@mindless.com>]

I've just tried compiling 2.0.36 with SMP support on my brand new and
shiny debian box (hamm), but it broke halfway through.

I'm asking the question here as I think I'm missing an important system
file, and was hoping somebody would be able to tell me which .deb it's in.

"make menuconfig" and "make dep; make clean" work fine, but after a fair
degree of success with "make zImage" I get;

--
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.0.36/include -E -D__ELF__ -D__SMP__
-traditional trampoline.S -o trampoline.s
as86 -0 -a -o trampoline.o trampoline.s
make[1]: as86: Command not found
make[1]: *** [trampoline.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.0.36/arch/i386/kernel'
make: *** [linuxsubdirs] Error 2

It compiles cleanly without SMP support (i.e. with SMP=1 commented out in
/usr/src/linux/Makefile).

Thanks in advance.

P.S. not really sure what I'm doing with dpkg yet, as I've just switched
from using Red Hat (which may explain a few things).
