I have now downloaded it all. What's the difference between kernel-source-2.4.13-2mdk.i586.rpm and kernel-2.4.13-2mdk.src.rpm?
I want to conmipe my own kernel, so I can exclude the modules I'm not using. Is there a good howto for Mandrake on this, one that tells me how to make a rollback if everything goes wrong too?
