Strange. You seem to be the only one having problems :-) What errors
exactly?

You can mail to  but I do not look there very
often. And you can just mail devfs list, but of course they probably do
not want to see Mandrake-specific things.

make mrproper
cp /boot/config .config
edit Makefile and change EXTRAVERSION to e.g. 18mdkcustom
make dep
make
make modules
make modules_install
make install

Should run lilo at the end but running lilo once more won't harm :)

I must admit I have not tried build 18mdk as yet.

Sure. Make mrproper (or distclean if you like it more) then as above.
