I don't think that 'make menuconfig' is necessary for a standard redhat
kernel.
What is the output of these three commands on your system?
uname -r
rpm -q kernel-smp-devel
rpm -q kernel-smp
The first command tells you the version number of the kernel that you
are running. That same version number needs to show up in the output of
the other two commands (to show that you have a matched set of
development headers installed).
Once those look right, you should be able to use
--with-kernel=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build for your configure argument.

Hi Amit,
Did you try 'make menuconfig' inside the kernel source tree?

Hi Rob,
I applied the patch you pointed me to:
http://www.pvfs.org/fisheye/rdiff/PVFS?csid=MAIN:pcarns:20080227143031&u&N
<http://www.pvfs.org/fisheye/rdiff/PVFS?csid=MAIN:pcarns:20080227143031&u&N>
And the system that I am working on already has kernel-smp-devel
installed.
Info is as shown below:

Do I need to upgrade kernel-smp-devel ?
Seems like I must be doing something silly, any thoughts?
Thank you,
