I had already installed the packages mentioned in the Centos wiki.
I assume you are referring to this wiki:
Thanks Akemi.
I was refering to this Centos wiki article:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/I_need_the_Kernel_Source
The second part.
I'll read up on the link you sent me.
Thanks for that.
Is the link you sent me more relevant than the MaxRPM guidelines:
http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/p5206.html
Kind Regards,

If not, I strongly recommend reading it through. Up front it warns you to not do the build as root. It provides the details for setting up the build environment which will help you understand the whole process. Installing some rpms may be convenient but you may miss the chance of learning. :-)
