local problem.
Thanks for all the advice

I put it in /usr/src, if you are not precise enough, do it all as ordinary user, use su then only in 'make install'I do the whole chebang as su as follows:
# ls -d /usr/src/<kernel.x.x.x>
# cd !$
# cd configs
# look for the config file what suits you, if you are wise then you also look at the contents
# cp <configfile> ../.config
# cd ..
// now you can make a choice, as in : make help
// but first ed Makefile and change 'custom' to whatever, DO NOT change the version numbers
// because then you have to change the dirname also.
// After that do
# oldconfig
// Then
make menuconfig || gconfig || xconfig // see make help
# don't nee make dep in the 2.6x kernels
# make
# make modules_install
# make install
// Pls look at /boot/grub/grub.conf if everthing is what you want, DO NOT DO grubby or whatever
// You only need to check grub.conf
That's all foulks
