Excellent howto; but you might want to add the following line to the "Reconfigure the kernel" section: $ cp .config ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kernel-2.6.16-$(arch).config Also, I think the kernel generated will still not be successful in fooling yum since it is generated as 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.$(whoami) as opposed to 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5. I've editied the spec file to remove the $(whoami) bit - hope it will now generate a kernel that looks identical to the stock FC5 one. > Paul. Thanks, M
