it looks like im the only one that cant follow a good set of instructions...
root@bt:/usr/src/linux# zcat /proc/config.gz > .config root@bt:/usr/src/linux# make scripts scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig root@bt:/usr/src/linux# root@bt:/usr/src/linux# make prepare scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h SYMLINK include/asm -> include/asm-x86 CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh root@bt:/usr/src/linux# that dont look right, when muts does this 'make prepare' command and 'zcat', the results dont match up with mine... i am able to get vm server installed but i cant start a windows-xp.iso... i get this error telling me to reinstall so i think the problem is with the commands posted above...

BigMac,
Whats the full error message ? zcat just extracts bt4's current kernel configuration file and places it into the kernel's directory. You wont get any output from that command unless there's something wrong. Have you run the make commands more than once ? If so try make mrproper before you run make scripts.
