ld:arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.lds:131: syntax error
make[5]: *** [../arch/x86/realmode/rm/Makefile:54: arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.elf] Error 1
make[4]: *** [../arch/x86/realmode/Makefile:20: arch/x86/realmode/rm/realmode.bin] Error 2
make[3]: *** [../scripts/Makefile.build:509: arch/x86/realmode] Error 2

Cheers,
