Where is the dkms tool expecting to find the source?
The kernel source comes out of the src.rpm into the
/usr/src/Redhat/BUILD/ directory by default, and then I'd have to move
it to /usr/src/linux or /usr/src/linux-2.6
Also some of these machines don't have development tools installed, is
there a way to turn this into a package?
