Kernel Compilation

[ace]

How come when I perform the make mrproper command I get something like
auc: cmd. line 2: fatal, cannot open file 
/usr/src/linux-2.6.10/include/linux/version.h: for reading, no such file or 
directory
I made a symlink to /usr/src/linux-2.6.10 by typing
ln -s linux linux-2.6.10
in the /usr/src directory.  The symlink seems to be working fine bc I was 
able to run checkout and patch the tree with Speakup successfully.

Thanks
