Hi, I was wondering whether it is necessary to download kernel headers for the kernel you are compiling. I have rarely bothered with this and things have seemed to work (maybe by sheer luck than anything!). Come to that - what are they actually used for? I thought I read that they are used for compiling applications 'against'. Do they have to be in any particular place (e.g., if you were compiling a kernel in /usr/home/cm/linux-2.4.19 should you stick them in /usr/home/cm?
