No Done listed here. You didn't skip this step did you? This is the one that sets up all the rest.

Hopefully you didn't take the 'version' here literally. it should be 2.6.9-34.0.2 or whatever else is current.
> 4. Configure your kernel how you see fit. make menuconfig etc. Here is where I'm having problems. The make menuconfig fails: [buildcentos@quark linux-2.6.9]$ pwd /home/buildcentos/rpmbuild/BUILD/linux-2.6.9
This path looks wrong to me. I believe it should be /home/buildcentos/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel/linux-2.6.9/
[buildcentos@quark linux-2.6.9]$ ls -al total 72 drwxrwxr-x 2 buildcentos buildcentos 4096 Jul 19 17:15 . drwxrwxr-x 3 buildcentos buildcentos 4096 Jul 19 17:14 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 buildcentos buildcentos 60982 Jul 19 17:18 .config
There should be a ton more in that directory than this.
[buildcentos@quark linux-2.6.9]$ make menuconfig make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop. At this point I'm stuck. I've done the menuconfig before using the other procedure but no joy this time. I searched the entire directory tree but can not find a makeconfig file.
I suspect you may have left out step 2, or used the wrong path in a later step. Double check please. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
