Have you installed the kernel headers and sources? Do you have the
directory linux/ inside /usr/src or is it just the .config file what's
missing inside linux/?
If the directory linux/ doesn't exist inside src/ then you won't
find .config because the kernel sources are not installed. Check:
rpm -qa|grep -i kernel
And install what's missing. The kernel headers are needed for
compiling.
Regards,...
Juan.
