Editing the config files manually doesn't always work. What I would try is this: (Note that I haven't actually done this, these commands are off the top of my head and may need adjusting) First, if your building rpms as 'root' set up a non-root rpm environment. I have directions and a script here: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/hack.html (Everything below assumes a non-root environment setup in ~/rpmbuild) Once set up, I'd install the kernel*.src.rpm package. $ rpm -ivh kernel*.src.rpm $ cd ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/kernel-2.4.20 $ rpmbuild -bp kernel-2.4.spec (Builds through the %prep stage, installing and patching the source.) $ cd ../../BUILD/kernel-2.4.20/linux-2.4.20/ $ mv configs/kernel-2.4.20-i586.config \ configs/kernel-2.4.20-i586.config.orig $ cp configs/kernel-2.4.20-i586.config.orig .config $ make config (making your changes) $ diff -Nau configs/kernel-2.4.20-i586.config.orig \ configs/kernel-2.4.20-i586.config > \ ../../../SOURCES/kernel-2.4.20/myi586patch.patch (and again for the changes to the i386 kernel) Add the needed 2 lines in the spec file to include each new patch: Patch12000: myi586patch.patch %patch12001 -p0 Patch12000: myi386patch.patch %patch12001 -p0 Perhaps try rpmbuild -bp again, make sure the patch applies properly. If so, then try building the package again. > Second, about i386 rpm, is that possible to make > kernel-2.4.20-8.i386.rpm instaed of kernel-BOOT-2.4.20-8.i386.rpm ?
