4) There is no kernel 2.6.9 in the /usr/src directory do I have to download the kernel-2.6.9.src.rpm for compiling the kernel.
I have downloaded the kernel 2.6.11.10.tar.gz from the site http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/
But there is no source kernel file in the http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ or does it include the source of kernel in kernel-2.6.11.10.tar.gz2 . I have choosen the directory which said it contains the kernel source also.
I am asking you before attempting to play with the kernel just to make sure that I do the right things .
Better to have a look before asking so you don't seem such a dill when you find what you have and that you've wasted some hours of others' time (considering that everyone who reads your Q is wasting time)!
