Hi ,
I would like use kernel source for both adding drivers are well as
configuring kernel.( porting for small embedded system)
Here i see one more problem , i have followed your below mentioned
steps.
kernel sources got updated, but when i try a command like rpm -qa | grep
kernel-source " nothing has been returned .
i have a doubt whether kernel sources were really downloaded or not .
Below i have pasted the messages from yum
