The base of the unpacked kernel source tree created by the
rpmbuild command in step 3, just as the instructions say ("In
the resulting tree..."). Did you perform step 3? Without any
errors?

The file from the configs directory that is right for your
desired kernel architecture. I'm not telepathic, so I don't know
which one is right for you.

You don't _put_ anything in the configs directory, you copy a
file _from_ the configs directory as the file ".config" in the
base of the kernel tree.

You should know the basics of Linux/Unix command line use before
trying to build a kernel.
