I just attempted to build the RPMS for the 2.2.16 kernel. After installing
the source RPM:
rpm -ivh kernel-2.2.16-9mdk.src.rpm
I did a build with the following command:
cd /usr/src/RPM/SPECS
rpm -ba --target=i586 kernel-2.2.spec
Everything appeared to build correctly, but it did not create any RPM
packages. I can't figure out what is missing. What is the secret to make
it create RPMs. I've built many other packages from source RPMS, but it
doesn't seem to work for the kernel.
Here is the tail end of the output.

Am I missing something very obvious?
Any help would be appreciated.
