The usr/src/linux directory that was missing before has been created, apparently for some reason a reboot was necessary for it to show up. Problem: I only have linux-2.4.12.tar.gz file in /usr/src ... "find -name *2.4.12*" only finds "linux-2.4.12.tar.gz file in /usr/src" What is wrong, please? I have tried everything I have found in man, doc, etc. Nothing seems to successfully extract the 2.4.12 kernel-source everyone keeps referring to. Thanks!
