Added a bigger title than just "Re:" Probably that gives slightly more help
(-:
No, sometimes the directory is not there, which of course gives problems.
What is the version (Probably best recognizable by looking at the file date
compared to you last build) of System.map in / or /boot? Does it exist?
Another small hint:
make bzImage is not needed anymore. You are doing making the image twice (Ok,
the second time it skips everything, but still).
For more information about the error you run into, you can get more
information by turning on verbosity (make V=1)
After the make modules_install you still have to do a make install
