It seems that you definitely need to set some stuff up in advance,
since, for instance, this looks for kernel sources.  I'm still not able
to get it all working.

I exploded the kernel SRPM with rpmbuild -bp, and then made a symlink
from  /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.11/linux-2.6.11
to /usr/src/kernels/2.6.11-1.1315_FC4-i686. 

This makes the livna RPM rebuild get further, but it still fails with a
message asking me to make sure I'm running the right kernel version
(matching the sources, which I think I am), and something about
KBUILD_OUTPUT, KBUILD, and SYSOUT.

Doesn't anybody else get this?

Thanks,

AG
