3) Build the kernel config

   [r...@server ~]# cd /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.3.1.el5-x86_64
   [r...@server 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5-x86_64]# make oldconfig && make
prepare

What's the purpose of this?  Is there an rpm that triggers something
after this step?  I'm just curious about it and would like to try it but
I have no Proliant to test on.   

I think what I really want to know is why use make oldconfig when you
might have 30 more hp machines to use it on with diff hardware unless
there are the same. Admin preference I guess.
