Subject: 2.4.5-ac20 problems with drivers/net/Config.in and make xconfig

I got this familiar error with make xconfig and 2.4.5-ac20 (same as 2.4.6-pre6)

drivers/net/Config.in: 149: can't handle dep_bool/dep_mbool/dep_tristate condition
make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.5-ac20/scripts'
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2

I applied this patch written by Keith Owens (thanks Keith):

And then I got:

[root@spc linux]# make xconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts kconfig.tk
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.5-ac20/scripts'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.5-ac20/scripts'
make: *** [xconfig] Error 2

So, I used the old reliable make menuconfig, and it worked OK and 
2.4.5-ac20 built successfully.
