Here is something that would work for my Debian system. It should,
possibly with minor changes, work for your RH system as well:
1. Find out which version of kernel that you are currently running by
typing in 'uname -a'.
root@daemon:[1] ~ # uname -a
Linux daemon 2.4.17-386 #2 Sat Dec 22 21:55:21 EST 2001 i686 unknown
This tells me I'm running version 2.4.17-386.
2. cd /boot
3. Copy the approriate configuration file for the currently running
kernel over to /usr/src/linux.
root@daemon:[4] /boot # cp /boot/config-2.4.17-386 /usr/src/linux/.config
This copies over the appropriate config file over to /usr/src/linux/.config
4. Cd over to /usr/src/linux
5. Run 'make dep'
Should, hopefully, work.
