What is the vanilla kernel?
[2a] copy the current running kernel config file

"vanilla kernel" is the kernel source from kernel.org, as opposed to a
kernel that has distro patches added.
The Fedora kernel config file for the current kernel is installed in
/boot with a name like config-2.6.12-1.1380_FC3.
Hope this helps.
