General :: Custom Kernel Compile Error

Last week, I played around with getting a custom recovery built for INQ Cloud Touch..

After compiling - flashing recompiling re-flashing for almost a week and on the verge of giving up ...

I realized, searched and found flash_image ... come to find out custom compile of recovery was fine, fastboot did not like my device and wasn't flashing it properly.

So flash_image got the custom recovery working as suppose to, able to backup/restore ... Flash roms.. however there are no roms.. best i could do was try roms from devices close to this one, with no luck!

So i decided i would try my hand at making a 2.3.7 gingerbread rom. Of course stock is froyo 2.2.1 and before i can make the rom.. i need a kernel for gingerbread. So I got the cm-kernel source using this guide:

[EDIT]
pulled my .config file using both
/proc/config.tgz
and the included script to pull it from the boot.img
[/EDIT]

Now, i been trying to get kernel compiled for the last 5 days.. and like i said, no lack of searching and reading... Had first error, forgot what it was now, but i got it fixed and compile went on.

Code:
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
arm-eabi-ld: no machine record defined
arm-eabi-ld: no machine record defined
arch/arm/mach-msm/built-in.o: In function `parse_tag_msm_partition':

[Code] ......

I have a notepad full of things i have enabled/disabled and restored to original trying to find what is missing or shouldn't be there!
