[NTLUG:Discuss] Kernel Source for RH 5.2

[George E. Lass]

I need to rebuilt the 2.0.36 kernel shipped with RedHat 5.2
I have installed the source RPM "kernel-2.0.36-0.7.src.rpm"
from the 2nd CDROM via "rpm -i kernel......." but the only
file that it "installed" that is big enough to contain the
kernel source is linux-2.0.35.tar.gz.  After gunzip'ing and
un-tar'ing it, I suspect I need to "patch" it too.

There are a number of "patch" files that were installed.
It looks like 2.0.36-pre-patch-14.gz might be one of the ones I need,
but when I try to install it via "patch", it is looking for the original
files in linux.vanilla/kernel linux.vanilla/drivers etc.....

There's just got to be an easier way to do this, but I don't
have any idea what it is.  Can anyone help?

George
