I have been using linux for nearly 3 years now and I have never compiled
my own kernel.  Why?  I haven't had the time and I haven't ever found a
tutorial I deemed good enough to "hold my hand" through the process. 
Well, I take that back.  I did compile my own kernel with gentoo and
that was pretty slick but I haven't compiled a kernel from scratch for
redhat 8.  Anyhow, I found a somewhat decent howto
here:http://voidmain.kicks-ass.net/redhat/redhat_8_kernel_2.4.19_from_source.html

However, I don't understand why this dude says to rm -f linux-2.4
linux.  I don't want to remove any of my existing kernels, just compile
a new one and try it out.  Any suggestions, comments, and jests are
appreciated :-)
