title: linux compile error Missing file arch/x86/boot/bzImage
body: <p>i'm trying to compile linux but keep getting the following error</p>
  
  <pre><code>$sudo make install
  sh ./arch/x86/boot/install.sh 4.14.28-2018840814 arch/x86/boot/bzImage \
  System.map "boot/"
  
  *** Missing file: arch/x86/boot/bzImage
  *** you need to run "make before "make install".
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I followed this direction but stuck on make install:</p>
  
  <p>$ make mrproper</p>
  
  <p>$ make menuconfig</p>
  
  <p>$ make -j4</p>
  
  <p>$ sudo make modules_install</p>
  
  <p>$ sudo cp .config /boot/config-<code>make kernelrelease</code></p>
  
  <p>$ sudo make install</p>
  
  <p>$ sudo reboot</p>
