I am building 2.6.18 from CentOS source code.
I'm at the last step to the build process in their instructions but seem to be getting an error that I can't understand.
Instructions I'm following: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Custom_Kernel
I ran...
[user@host SPECS]$ rpmbuild -bb --target=uname -m kernel.spec 2> build-err.log | tee build-out.log
and got...

RPM build errors:
I'm not sure why there's no useful messages after "RPM build errors". After I run the above rpmbuild command, I'm supposed to see "custom kernel rpm files" generated in the ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/uname -m/ directory. I do not see anything in that folder.
Here's what I see in the build-err.log:
