Default Re: RUN make command means what

1) Looks like you are missing kernel sources. How did you acquire RHEL5? Bought it, got it from a friend, Certification course? If you bought it, then you should contact Redhat support because you are entitled to it and they will provide the necessary solution(s). Same goes for Certification.

2) If you are using RHEL 5, then why are you compiling it? Start from Appendix B-2.

./configure - ./configure is a bash script that generates a Makefile after analyzing your system. The configure script is built by the autoconf program given a configure.ac or configure.in template file. A Makefile is like saying setup.exe on Windows, ./configure readies the app in question to be installed.
