This will fail, due to a bug in the .config generation process.  Where it
tells you to run 'make oldconfig', run it twice.  Here's a brief step by
step:

	yum install kernel-source
	cd /usr/src/linux-2.4
	make mrproper
	cp -f configs/kernel-2.4.22-i686-smp.config .config (*)
	make oldconfig
	make oldconfig
	make dep clean bzImage modules

* Pick the appropriate config file out of 'configs' to suit your purpose.
