hello managers,
        I am having a problem on one of my alphaserver 4100 running
du4.0b. this system is part of asecluster (the other system is also a
AS4100). Someone has deleted the vmunix file on this system, i found
it when i had to reboot the system a few hours back. so i booted through
the genvmunix and thought i can rebuild the kernel but to my bad luck
iam having trouble even doing doconfig. iam not able to get a kernel
build the error i get is as follows

########################################################################
hotstuff.istrac.gov.in:root>doconfig -c HOTSTUFF

*** KERNEL CONFIGURATION AND BUILD PROCEDURE ***

Saving /sys/conf/HOTSTUFF as /sys/conf/HOTSTUFF.bck

Do you want to edit the configuration file? (y/n) [n]:


*** PERFORMING KERNEL BUILD ***

*** WARNING ***
An error has occurred during system configuration. A partial listing
of the error log file (./errs) follows:

Make: Don't know how to make arch/alpha/Locore.c. Stop.
Press <RETURN> to continue:

*** NOTE ***
The customized kernel for this machine could not be successfully
created. One possible problem could be kernel layered products
that might be incompatible with the base operating system. This
script will now automatically attempt to build a kernel using the
base operating system only.
Is this ok? (y/n) [y]:
