make-kpkg clean Xen?

[undrex]

Keep getting this error when trying make-kpkg clean! Anyone got a solution for this? The reason its not finding the Xen directory is because its not there ofcource

root@X:/usr/src/linux# make-kpkg clean

I'm also having the same problem. Any ideas as to what might be the best solution?

Thanks!

Alright I think I fixed. My particular compilation config was calling for Xen support. If you reconfigure (e.g. menuconfig), and then make sure that no Xen-related options are selected, then retry the make-kpkg clean, it should work.

Note that they may be in deeper sub-menus. Mine, for instance, was inside of Processor Type and Features >> Paravirtualized Guest Support >> Xen ...

Good luck

Thank you for this. It's a bit hard sometimes when you don't know what your doing.

What would you do if you wanted Xen support though?

This is a good work around, but it doesn't seem like it would work in the case that a user was attempting a custom kernel for a xen system/host?
