[CentOS] recompiling kernel results in error: .../linux-2.6.18.i686/arch//Makefile: No such file or directory

[dcw]

When I use the i386 the compile continues.
However, I had to edit the SOURCE config file after running make xconfig.
That command altered the first line of the config file.

Will post the results of the compile when completed. My best guess is it will 
take about 7 - 8 hours.

Thanks,
David
