Here is a problem: I believe the 'make clean' has removed your .config
file.  Try moving the appropriate default config file to .config )see
below), then:
 
make oldconfig
make dep
make vmlinux
make modules
make modules_install

gcc-3.3 is recommended instead, I think, over gcc-2.95

TS has supplied some default config files for their boards.  Look in
the arch/arm/def-configs directory.

If you want to build a TS kernel, you probably want a more up-to-date
version like -ts11.

Also, read:
http://www.embeddedarm.com/documentation/software/arm-tslinux-ts72xx.pdf
and

where you will find many helpful details.
