RE: Rebuilding the Kernel Mini HOW TO
Thank you,
I am still in a fog in terms of simple things like symlinks. What you want
is to end up with a link in the linux directory called kernel-source-2.4.18
that links to /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18. So how should that be said?
[ ]1.d create a symbolic link to kernel-source-2.4.18 from /usr/src/linux
$ ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18 /usr/src/linux
Best Wishes!

Doing 1.b. followed by 1.d. will _not_ work. A directory with the name
"linux" exists, as it was created in 1.b. and thus a symlink with the same
name can not be made at the same level. Instead you will wind up with a
symlink in the linux directory called kernel-source-2.4.18.
