To start with, what was the sequence of commands to get to this point?
Here is how I usually build everything:

$ rm -rf /usr/obj/* # or wherever you point your object tree
$ ./build.sh tools
$ ./build.sh kernel=GENERIC # s/GENERIC/<Your custom kernel>/
<Backup kernel, install new one and reboot>
<Make sure everything still works - go back to backup if problems>
$ ./build.sh distribution
$ ./build.sh install=/'
