Yeah, this won't help. What you have to do is download the SRPMS for the kernel, not the kernel-source. Then go into the /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES directory, and you will see various .config files for different builds. Change any/all of the config files to build it statically. Then go into the /usr/src/redhat/SPECS directory and rebuild the RPM with the rpm -bb kernel.spec. This will build new kernel-*.rpm's. You'll then need to put those on the CD instead of the stock RPMS to be installed. Then your new kernel will be the one installed at load time and not the stock one.
