I probably did with CentOS too, but I don't recall for > sure. I should have updated this thread earlier. I have confirmed that unifdef is required when building kernels for x86_64 but not for i686. It's in the kernel .spec file: # no need to build headers again for these arches, # they can just use i386 and ppc64 headers %ifarch i586 i686 ppc64iseries %define with_headers 0 %endif and this: %if %{with_headers} BuildRequires: unifdef %endif We have since updated the Wiki article accordingly. Thank you all for your participation. Akemi
