The following configures your Redhat kernel source to the flavor of
Redhat kernel you're currently running, if you choose the '???'
appropriately:
cd /usr/src/linux
cp configs/kernel-2.4.9-???.config .config
make oldconfig
The final step is to edit /usr/src/linux/Makefile and change the
definition of EXTRAVERSION to match the version of the running kernel,
I can't remember if you need to run
make depend
too, maybe that makes the needed version.h
