Re: recompiling kernel results in error: .../linux-2.6.18.i686/arch//Makefile: No such file or directory

[dcw <dwoody1@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I deleted the contents of /home/cs/redhat. I then did a install of the 8.1.4 
src.
I edited the SPEC file so that the %prep section started as follows:

%prep
# First we unpack the kernel tarball.

Then I did the rpmbuild -bp and got the same failure:
non-existent symbol PHYSICAL_START

Thanks,

David
