You probably do not have the source code for the kernal installed on
your system. It's on the second CD. The following command will install
it. You must be root user.
"rpm -ivh /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS2/kernel-source-2.4.x.rpm" (Don't
type the quotes and the x is for whatever kernel version you have. If
you have not updated since the install then you can "ls
/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS2/kernel*" and see the numbers.
After the installation you should then have a fully populated
/usr/src/linux directory, and then be able to complile a kernel.
If you need assistance feel free to email me.
