Linux2.4.24.
After executing the make xconfig, while saving the settings a message i=

displayed: End of Linux kernel configuration. Check the top level make =

for additional configuration. Next, you must run make dep

This is perfectly normal. Simply run "make dep" as indicated. And, _pleas=

RTFM about linux kernel compilation.

Now where does this top level make file is.=20

Exactly were it should be, the top level directory.

I didn't find any other Make
file higher in the hierarchy.=20

Probably because there is no higher level in the hierarchy? ;)

Do I need to create that particular make
file.=20

No.

What extra setting there would be in that make file.

Probably none.

Have fun!
