Explanation

When the configure script ends, it also tells you to make dep' and (possibly) clean'. So, do the make dep'. This insures that all of the dependencies, such the include files, are in place. It does not take long, unless your computer is fairly slow to begin with. For older versions of the kernel, when finished, you should do a make clean'. This removes all of the object files and some other things that an old version leaves behind. In any case, do not forget this step before attempting to recompile a kernel.
