Why not? It doesn't matter where you keep the kernel sources. The driver Makefile has to have the kernel sources path set accordingly. The use of /usr/src is just to keep it under one directory so one doesn't need to keep searching for different kernel sources in the system. --- "The Xirtna" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > what does it means to have a configured and built kernel? 1.
