EDIT: Solved it, check my comment below.
I'm trying to compile a kernel with make O=$BUILD
Where build is the build path: BUILD=~/lab/build
But then I get this error:
*** Configuration file ".config" not found!
***
*** Please run some configurator (e.g. "make oldconfig" or
*** "make menuconfig" or "make xconfig").
***
make[3]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 1
make[2]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 2
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `include/config/auto.conf', needed by`include/config/kernel.release'. Stop.
Before I compiled I used the old config file for the new kernel by copying it to my kernel folder:
cp -vi /boot/config-3.13.0-45-generic .config
and then i ran:
make oldconfig
and entered all defaults.
How can I fix the error?
I got it to compile now by doing
make O=$BUILD oldconfig and also by doing a make mrproper in my kernel directory, and then running make O=$BUILD again.

I am currently trying to rebuild a linux kernel, and I'm experimenting some difficulties.
I have modified the .config using make menuconfig.

Then I tried to run make mrproper. It works well and deletes my .config file from my build folder. Without surprise I cannot build because a .config file is missing.
I did a make defconfig followed by a make -j 8, just to try to build with some basic config file.

How am I supposed to build if generating a .config makes the source folder unclean ?
You should check whether the "include/config" directory exists in your kernel source.
The prepare3 target checks the '.config' file and the 'include/config' directory. You could find this by searching "prepare3" in the Makefile
lib/mpi/generic_mpih-lshift.o:/home/shubh/Root/XENO_WS/linux-3.8.13/lib/mpi/mpi-inline.h:110: first defined here

How can I resolve this? When I am doing same steps in OpenSUSE it is not giving any error. I followed these steps:
make mrproper
make oldconfig
make -j4
then I get the error in between this.
So you use gcc of version 5, which is incompatible with Linux kernel version you want to compile. – Tsyvarev
It is resolve now. I build the kernel with lower version of gcc. – sam1006
I'm trying to install MPFR on cygwin.
I successfully ran "./configure --with-gmp-build=../gmp-5.1.3" and it doesn't gave me any error.
But when I ran "make install", it fails and gives following error.
In file included from exceptions.c:23:0:
mpfr-impl.h:71:24: fatal error: gmp-impl.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

I added gmp location to path as well. What is wrong here? How can I solve this?
Don't use the --with-gmp-build option (unless you know what you're doing) and don't use relative paths with configure. If you have installed GMP in directory DIR, just use --with-gmp=DIR.
I try to compile gcc with make install and it gives me this:
make[1]: Entering directory `/media/BOSS/sources/gcc-build'
/bin/bash ../gcc-4.8.1/mkinstalldirs /tools /tools
/bin/bash: line 3: cd: ./fixincludes: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [install-fixincludes] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/media/BOSS/sources/gcc-build'
make: *** [install] Error 2
I am currently compiling it for lfs also I am in a seprate directory on a 32 bit computer
It seems the issue is caused by the target install. So my advice is to check the line in MakeFile which relates to [install].
Perhaps you may want to share more details for better solutions.

How can i solve this error?
Do you have ARM toolchain installed? If there is no such package in Ubuntu you can download it from the internet and add it to your $PATH.
Take a look at what is arm-linux-gcc and how to install this in ubuntu
EDIT:
It might be, that your makefile is looking for different filenames, than you have.
Try locating arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc file. Go to that directory and you may create links for each file with arm-linux-gnueabi- prefix.
Try after sudo su:
ln -s arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc arm-linux-gcc
ln -s arm-linux-gnueabi-cc arm-linux-cc
etc.
Might help, but I do not guarantee. Usually works ;-)
