Two recompiles later I can get through the "make dep step".
I continued on with 
make modules
and everything worked great but then you had...

>> INSTALL_MOD_PATH=`pwd`/modules
>> make modules_install
>> installs kernel into linux24/modules

which doesn't work, I am curious just what this part is supposed to do? 
Now looking at it again, I think I figured it out, ...
Another test...
nope, I can't make the makefile figure out the environment variable...
oh wait, have to export it...forgot that...
so the instructions should read ...for me at least 
....
INSTALL_MOD_PATH=`pwd`/modules
export INSTALL_MOD_PATH
make modules_install
installs kernel into linux24/modules
....

Ok everything looks good...except now I have a module that was not for
this architechture.
 So I got this to look forward too.
