a "make bzImage" produces this command: cmd_arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.s := gcc -E -Wp,-MD,arch/i386/kernel/.vmlinux.lds.s.d -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude -D__ASSEMBLY__ -Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default -traditional -o arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.s arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S it should produce something like this: cmd_arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.s := gcc -E -Wp,-MD,arch/i386/kernel/.vmlinux.lds.s.d -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude -D__ASSEMBLY__ -Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default -traditional -P -C -Ui386 -o arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.s arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S see the last but one line for the difference. -Alex.
