I have compiled Linux kernel 2.6.24.6 from source (without problem) and tries to install it. In specific, after unpacking linux source code, I did

make && make modules

to compile. Then after some configuration, I simply use

sudo make modules_install install

to install the built binary. During this process, there is error about locating file /sys/class/net/eth0/device/bus. It also throws grubby fatal error. Detailed error stack is as follows:

sh /mnt/factor/myProj3/linux-2.6.24.6/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.24.6 arch/x86/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot"
unable to stat /sys/class/net/eth0/device/bus: No such file or directory
WARNING: No module xenblk found for kernel 2.6.24.6, continuing anyway
grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template

The source code should be all right. What is possible cause of this fatal error? without fixing it, I cant get linux installed. Please advise.
