CVS - kernel config files, where are they?

["Nick Smith" <nick_smith67@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to build a kernel SRPM from the current CVS tree. Having read the 
docs and checked out the sources, I get as far as (from kernel/devel)

[root@localhost devel]# make
 % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time
Current
                                Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left

make: *** No rule to make target `configs/config-i686', needed by 
`kernel-2.6.11-i686.config'.  Stop.

The source trees I checked out ("cvs co kernel" with
CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs/dist) do not seem to 
contain any configs

Perhaps somebody would be kind enough to point out where I am going wrong

Thanks

Nick
