[Sheflug] kernel sources

[matt fairtlough <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks a million for the DVD, Richard.

I've now installed the kernel source rpm for SuSE 7.2 (hears cheers :-)

but I'm puzzled: it is installed in /usr/src/linux which contains a 
README file which says on no account put the kernel sources in 
/usr/src/linux ... well since they were put there I reckoned it was ok 
to have them there and built the kernel anyway, but if I've done 
something bad, perhaps someone could let me know what I should have done 
instead?

thanks in advance,

Matt.

PS is there any way of finding out what kernel options were set in the 
kernel I'm now running (result of installing SuSE _without_ the kernel 
source package)?  Because it seems risky to start off (as I have done) 
with a default set of options which don't support much of the hardware 
I've got.
