First time Kernal comiling
Hello folks,
I hope this was not recenlty covered.
I have Core 3, kernal 2.6.9-1.667
All I'd like to do is recompile an "existing" kernal, not upgrade or patch.
First, both pieces of documentation tell me to go to the /usr/src/linux directory. However, I don't have one, but I do have a /usr/src/redhat directory, so I tried the following from there.
make menuconfig
and get this error
no rule to make target "menuconfig" . Stop
Also, there is nothing in this redhat directory, which leads me to think I need to get the source. But, where from?
I'd rather not download it as I have a dialup.
I have 4 CDs that came with this.
Again, I don't want to upgrade kernal, just recompile.
thanks,
Mark
