The only thing I suggest is to look at the spec file. right at the top is a list of what is compiled by default. You can also simply set the stuff you do not want to 0 and it will not compile. I prefer the --without stuff so I do not have to modify the spec file everytime I want to build a kernel though. Although I will admit I still get some stuff I do not want. I too need to play with this a little more. Oh and one more thing you might want to make a link in /usr/src/linux-2.4 to /usr/src/linux. Most 3rd party modules expect the kernel src to be there. ..........Tom rhel-rebuild mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hosted at the University of Innsbruck, Austria
