Sadly, if you're using FC4, and you want to compile your own kernel
(for example, to take AGPGART from included to a module) the
kernel-devel won't compile without some love and attention (which I'm
still working on)

for example:

[root at frontend1 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686]# rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4
kernel-devel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4
[root at frontend1 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686]# pwd

/usr/src/kernels/2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686

[root at frontend1 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686]# du -s
55132   .


[make oldconfig ; make menuconfig ; etc]


[root at frontend1 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4-i686]# make
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by
`init/built-in.o'.  Stop.
make: *** [init] Error 2


any hints??
