I've installed RedHat 6.0 on a workstation that dual-boots NT, and it works fine with one exception -- the NTFS module wasn't compiled. I don't have a problem compiling a new kernel, but I would prefer to start with the same kernel config file that the default kernel was compiled with -- then all I'd need to do would be to add in NTFS and go, instead of trying to guess which options were enabled. I checked all of the shipped kernel modules (binary & source) and didn't find the .config file. Could someone point me at where I could get a copy? Thanks.
Red Hat kernels are compiled with all default answers. Look at /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/defconfig (assuming i386). You might also installing the kernel.src.rpm, making your change, and then rebuilding using rpm.
