How to properly install kernel in fedora 10?
Hello and thank you for looking into my question.

Well my question is quite straight forward. I am trying to install the latest kernel ( from kernel.org under mainline directory ). But strange error messages are coming up. Can someone please guide me through steps how did you install kernel in fedora 10 and configured it properly? If possible please mention the kernel version too that you installed.


Thank you.

The proper way to install a kernel in fedora is to use the fedora kernel, not build your own by hand from source from kernel.org

...and it's a lot simpler if you update your kernel through yum.
