Kernel Build not working

The kernel building process is not working. My error is below, make mrproper fails as well. Any suggestions?

    I had this problem, too. but 'make mrproper' solved this problem. I started the Nios2 SDK Shell, changed to directory:

    com.microtronix.nios2linux.kernel_1.4.0\linux-2.6.x

    and run 'make MrProper' by typing in the Nios 2 SDK Shell and it did the job.

    If it doesn't work, maybe you'll have to install a fresh version of your Linux Kit?

    It worked today. I ran "make MrProper" and then "make mrproper" and it worked. It could have been I shut down the computer last night and restarted it this morning.

    Add to the Appendix A of the Nios II Linux Quickstart Guide, Altera Nios II 1c12 Evaluation Kit, disable SMC ethernet device driver when enabling MoreThanIP 10_100_1000
