kernel modules

[Bill Davidson]

Alright. Now I've done it. I needed to rebuild my kernel after-all, and I
didn't make a backup of my working kernel(1 of my finer brain-dead
moments). I ran 'make modules install' instead of 'make modules_install'. I
ran make modules_install afterward. Now I can't boot. It just says 'loading
kernel...' and freezes.

This is for an lfs system, so I do have another working system. So I
chrooted to my lfs partition and ran 'make menuconfig'. I probly don't need
that but anyway... It appears I've hosed Ncurses. Here's the output:

rm -f include/asm
( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm)
make -C scripts/lxdialog all
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog'
collect2: cannot find 'ld'

>> Unable to find the Ncurses libraries.
>>
>> You must have Ncurses installed in order
>> to use 'make menuconfig'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog'

So here's the question: can I fix this? Also, was this caused by the stupid
make modules install command that I mistakenly entered?
