Yes, of course they are missing. They are automatically generated by the config program in the /sys/compile/YOURCONFIG directory. If you did what has been said in the ROADMAP file for kernel building, they should be there. You *must* config YOURCONFIG cd /sys/compile/YOURCONFIG make depend make Going into the several kernel directories, compiling the files there and then lumping all the *.o files together won't work. The only thing (besides memory/swap problems and such hazzles) which might cause trouble is the vers.o problem (read the FAQ or apply Terry's patchkit).
