Kernel Compilation Error (stable build 3.0.4)

Show all headers | View raw

Friends,

I tried to compile Linux latest stable kernel 3.0.4 (downloaded last
night from kernel.org).
1. Extracted - in a windows 7 box.
2. Mounted the folder in vmware 8.0 hosting Fedora 15 (running kernel
version 2.6.40)
3. Created .config by doing "make defconfig" for i386.
4. Ran "make"

make started running with all enthusiasm for an hour but got tired
soon and stated several reasons before stopping as I pasted below.
Similar errors occurred in my previous attempt when I took existing
configuration from 2.6.40 and copied it in 3.0.4 directory by hand.
Am I missing anything ? Or its to be done differently on vmware ?
Also I see some clock skew errors, though my PC clock appears to be
normal. Are these warnings okay and can be neglected ?

I have stopped going to college since last 12 years. So please don't
take it to be a class assignment - it is just my "high" level of
intelligence that stops me from finishing it on my own. Didn't get
much help from google.
