Hi all Im in the process of compiling a new Kernal to try and use the new Ipatables firewall
Im very new to Kernal compiling and I would like to know if the following is a error
I have no errors with
make dep

make bzImage
make modules
However after isueing
make modules_install at the very end I get the following
I would like to know if this is a message or a error to be concerned about 
Thank you.
