iSCSI Initiator in Archlinux (for ZMLarch)

Hello everyone, I'm working on a project that requires me to set up an iSCSI initiator. I am using ZoneMinder to record video and I need that video to be streamed and stored directly on a SAN using iSCSI. Now, I've done my research(yes I searched through these forums with no luck), and found this page:

http://www.cuddletech.com/articles/iscsi/ar01s04.html

which LOOKs like it should be an easy walkthrough, however I run in to errors when I try to use the 'make' command.

This is what happens:

[/home/user/Desktop/linux-iscsi-4.0.2]# make

Note: using kernel source from /lib/modules/2.6.29-ARCH/build containing
kernel version 2.6.29

Note: using kernel config from /lib/modules/2.6.29-ARCH/build/.config

After that there are a bunch more errors, I can post the rest of the code if necessary.

Anyways, the point is, I need to get this working. I don't know if this method will work, so any other suggestions you have to get an iSCSI Initiator set up would be greatly appreciated.
