cd /usr/src ls -l if you have a 'linux' directory it most likely points to Mandrake custom kernel which would be something like 2.4.18-mdk. If you don't have a "linux" directory pointing to something like that then create a link to do so. ln -s linux-2.4.18.mdk linux Then try your 'make menuconfig' Bon chance!
