Hey everyone,

>> I'm trying to create a custom kernel for my Fedora 14 system.How do I get the kernel-devel and kernel-header for my custom kernel?
>> Do I have to write a separate spec file for that?Are there any links that will help me with it?

  > sudo yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers

     Above command installs the devel and headers for latest kernel which may not be the case so

     Better command would be

     sudo yum install kernel-devel-$(uname -r)
     sudo yum install kernel-header-$(uname -r)
