Why would you want that? To make sure we are talking about the same
thing, you're saying that you want to end up with
/usr/src/linux/kernel-source-2.4.18
that points to
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18
If this is correct, then your instructions in step 5 are wrong.
|[ ]5. # cd to /usr/src/linux

| $ make menuconfig or make xconfig
The "make menuconfig" needs to be done at the top of the kernel source
tree. Which, would now be /usr/src/linux/kernel-source-2.4.18. Perhaps
what you intended is that
/usr/src/linux
point to
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18
If that's the case, drop 1.b. altogether.
