PROBLEM:

[roman duka <unixfreak@ntlworld.com>]

if i go to /usr/src/linux and edit Makefile and replace the line:

ARCH := $(shell uname -m | sed -e s/i.86/i386/ -e s/sun4u/sparc64/ -e s/arm.*/arm/ -e s/sa110/arm/)

with:

ARCH := arm

and then run 'make menuconfig' menuconfig goes into infinite loop and gets killed when it uses up all available memory. any ideas how to fix this problem??
