Much appreciated Johnny, thanks for taking the time to explain what and where. I'll start using the plus SRPMs from here out and then I only need to modify for the timer frequency. Thanks.

Johnny can you bee more specific on how you go about and correct this? I need to recompile with the same support as the plus build but I also need to change the frequency timer. That works but I have no reiserfs, etc support. Where do you go to change the settings to get this to stick. I tried looking for a per script that set these settings as mentioned in your description below but was unable to find where they are setting it. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
What I did what modify the Kernel Spec file to not use the generic template code. I did this by removing that section of code completely from the spec file.
So, I removed this section of code completely from the "%prep" section for CentOSPlus spec:
==================================================================================== #if a rhel kernel, apply the rhel config options %if 0%{?rhel} for i in %{all_arch_configs} do mv $i $i.tmp $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/merge.pl $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/config-rhel-generic $i.tmp > $i rm $i.tmp done for i in $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/kernel-%{kversion}-{i586,i686,i686-PAE,x86_64}*.config do echo i is this file $i mv $i $i.tmp $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/merge.pl $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/config-rhel-x86-generic $i.tmp > $i rm $i.tmp done for i in $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/kernel-%{kversion}-ppc64.config do echo i is this file $i mv $i $i.tmp $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/merge.pl $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/config-rhel-ppc64-generic $i.tmp > $i rm $i.tmp done %endif #if a olpc kernel, apply the olpc config options %if 0%{?olpc} for i in %{all_arch_configs} do mv $i $i.tmp $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/merge.pl $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/config-olpc-generic $i.tmp > $i rm $i.tmp done %endif
====================================================================================
That mod should be in spec file for CentOSPlus .... in this SRPM:
http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.18-8.1.1.el5.centos....
(also the i586, i686, x86_64 kernel-2.6.18* SOURCE files from that SRPM are also the config files for what is enabled in the CentOSPlus kernel)
