Thank you Garry: You are right there is no file /usr/src/linuxat all,
let alone a link to the 2.2.18 sources. The interesting thing is that on
the Mandrake home page there is a link to www.mandrakeuser.org, where
they advise, in www.mandrakeuser.org/install/kupgrade3.html, to break
that link:

 1. Delete the symlink '/usr/src/linux'. Otherwise the sources will be
    unpacked into the Mandrake kernel sources directory!

But never instruct the user to recreate it after they install the new
sources. I must write to them.

Thank you again. I could not see the answer.  John T
