Hi all

I sucessfully got kernel-2.4.12-5mdk.i586.rpm installed and 
working on my system..

Then I thought no, I should compile the kernel for i686 or Athlon,
 which ever I can get working..

Then I started wondering if there was an easier way to do that, 
like rpm --rebuild kernel* (where * is a src rpm).

I have the headers installed and everything else thats relivent..
So I downloaded the 29mb kernel src rpm and gave it a shot..
but that doesn't work. (gives me a no such file or directory error 
even though the file is there and is not corrupted..)

do I really have to go through the whole config compiling shebang 
just to get an i686 or AMD optimised kernel?

Can anyone enlighten me here? I gave up the patience to compile kernels 
ares ago, I just want something like --rebuild to do all the hard work 
and make me a .i686.rpm or similiar...
