There are no dumb questions Don. Unless you don't ask them of course. (-; But it isn't all that clear what you want to do. Are you trying to customize your kernel? http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/install/index.html#ku It will be in in /usr/src/kernelversion; but you have to install the kernel-source rpm for that. Unless you want to _really_ build it from scratch. If that's what you want you'll have to wait for someone knowledgable comes along. I may be able to do it, but explain it in plain English.....nah!
