[SOLVED] Problem whilst trying to build kernel26-ck from source

I've spent some time reading about kernel patch sets, and after some research and valuable info from the Arch community, I've decided that the ck patchset is most appropriate for my system, however,  I receive the following error after issuing a mkpkg -sc command:

Issuing a mkpkg command '--asroot' fails to make any difference whatsoever.

Am I missing something here?

SOLVED!

The trick was to remove 'noexec' along the mount options for /home from fstab.

Good that you worked it out but just as a side note, running makepkg --asroot is never a solution.
