This is evidence of a _really_ serious crash; the last time I saw this error message was about 6 years ago on a 386 when a DOS program crashed hard. All I can tell you is to try make config; make dep; make clean; make zImage. Then install the new kernel by hand (if you're using a boot loader). Make sure you do a make clean in there; this may be the result of a previous incomplete compile.
