[expert] rebuild kernel (2nd request)

[David Dennis]

Is there a howto that reflects the current mandrake config (ramdisk use,
module rebuild included) on howto rebuild the kernel?.  I have only seen
kernel HOWTO that make little use of ramdisk / module
rebuilding.  installing kernel-2.2.17-21mdk.i586.rpm did not work.  i get
*** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.16/(everything) .. this was
with make modules and make modules_install .

help!
