[uml-user] Fedora host / RH8 guest

[Carl Youngblood]

Hi, I've kept putting off my foray into the labyrinthine world of UML, 
but now it's time.  I'm supporting some software whose specific target 
platform is RH8 (don't ask me why).  I'm running Fedora Core 2 as host, 
but my basic intention is to keep up with the latest version of Fedora.  
I've been following the instructions at:

http://linuxhacker.ru/uml/
But my situation is a little different, and I need a little more help 
than is provided there.  First of all, step 2 says that I need to get 
the user-mode kernel compiled.  This kernel is for the guest OS, right?  
Can I compile this inside my Fedora host system, or do I need to install 
RH8, recompile the kernel and then copy it somewhere?

Finally, I have recompiled a kernel before, but I can't remember the 
details.  Can somebody point me to a good reference for kernel compilation?

Thanks,
Carl
