Maybe it's just me but, IMHO, I think it unwise to build kernels from the src.rpm. The entire process seems arcane and the results are not entirely predictable. It seems safer and simpler to do the following: 1. Obtain and install the src.rpm 2. Edit the spec file to compile a kernel-source.rpm 3. Install the kernel-source.rpm which installs the complete source tree to /usr/src. 4. Make mrproper, make menuconfig, make all, make modules_install, make install, make clean. You now have a new, fully customized kernel, ready to run, with grub.conf updated. "But it's not an RPM." So what? ________________________________________________________________________ Total Quality Management - A Commitment to Excellence Stop spam: http://www.TQMcube.com/rbldnsd.htm
