i am trying to compile the kernel 2.2.14 on to my i386 machine

 update:

 after doing make bzImage, it starts to compile, which takes about 10 mins
or

then at the end it says:
>
as86 -0 -a -o bbootsect.o bbootsect.s
make[1]: as86:  Command not found
make[1]: *** [bbootsect.o] Error 127
make[1]:  Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-2.2.14/arch/i386/boot'
make: *** [bzImage] Error 2
