Hi,

2.1.102 appears to break 'make menuconfig' on my system: any suggestions?
I believe I am up to date on all the requirements (binutils, etc.)
It comes up with an empty screen with just the 'save' and 'save as different'
options.
Error is as follows:

root@terminus: make menuconfig
rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts/lxdialog all
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.102/scripts/lxdialog'
