I know the slow feeling.  I had a hard time with this stuff when I started.
You do seem to be a ways ahead of me in your understanding of make files
and such.

What distribution are you using for the Linux-2.2.14?  I wrote a page on
it.  

www.linuxcnc.org/handbook/rtlinux/rtl20.html

I still use that system for testing of the code.

I would also be happy to connect you with one of the original BDI disks if
you contact me off list.

I believe that this has been fixed in some of the more recent releases. 
What or where did you get your EMC source code?

Hope this helps.
