hi,
I just dl'd & built a kernel source RPM ( 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5-i686 ) as I needed 
to set some kernel 
switches for a new driver.

The rpm build process produced the exact RPMs that I expected, complete with my 
little version
'_test' at the end.

The system boots my new 2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5 kernel just fine.

The problem is that the rpm BUILD output dir only has linux-2.6.18.i686, and my 
symlink 
( /lib/modules/2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5/build ) is expecting a 
2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5-i686
source directory. This symlink was set by the rpmbuild process.

Any idea why the RPM build process produced a linux-2.6.18.i686 rather than the 
expected 2.6.18-8.1.3_test.el5-i686 
source code directory? 

Thanks, I appreciate any insight,
-m
