I got this error compiling the ac20 kernel:

ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux-2.4.0-test1/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e

        -o vmlinux
ld: cannot open drivers/block/block.a: No such file or directory

I have included all the parts of my .config file that I
think might pertain to the block code.

My guess is that I've either chosen bad configuration options
or that there is a bug in the configuration scripts.
