First off, for a question like this, it's best to use the CentOS main list (not -devel) or the forums to get assistance. Second, the doc link you showed is the one written for RHEL-3. The correct wiki page to read is: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Custom_Kernel Third, you can file a request at bugs.centos.org to enable the option in the centosplus kernel. This way, you would do not have to recompile your own kernel. Hope this helps, Akemi
