Explanation: Explanation:
There is one more step needed for the build process, however. You have created the kernel, but now you need to create all the loadable modules if you have them configured. Be aware that typical distribution kernels tend to have almost every feature installed, plus a few others for good measure. These can typically take an hour or so to build on our Athlon XP1800. The stock kernels are somewhat leaner by default and take, on average, 25 minutes to compile. To build the modules we run:
$ make modules
If you forget to enter make modules command, you will get that message.
Follow these steps while recompile the kernel.
