RHEL4: compiling kernel


Redhat has removed the "kernel-source" package from enterprie 4. No
kernel source means no tweaking the kernel. I have a need to turn on
multiple SCSI lun support on my RHEL4 server. I did find a redhat source
package on the RH web site (kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.EL.src.rpm) that contains
the kernels.org source kernel and about a million patches that I assume
redhat provided. I really don't want to install and patch the kernel myself.
Is there an install script somewhere that can build the patched source tree,
or at least some instructions on how to proceed?

i have centos box (it is from the SRPMS of RHEL4). kernel-devel provides the source for my running kernel. it should be the same with RHEL 4.
