The easiest approach (at least for me) is to install the src.rpm. Modify
the spec file to build a source rpm. 

%define buildup 0
%define buildsmp 0
%define buildxen 0
%define buildsource 1
%define builddoc 0


This is a very quick build. Then install your new rpm and you will have
the traditional source tree in /usr/src. 

You can, of course, edit the spec file for kernel options and build an
installation rpm but that seems risky. In the alternative (if you feel
that you must have an rpm) you can export your configuration file and
replace the configs in the spec.

Of course, it's even easier just to install the Korg kernel but some
view that as heresy.
