Thanks.  I finally got it to work lastnight about midnight.

My problem was trying to follow the directions in the How-To.  I
followed the directions in the RH 6.0 installation guide and it worked
perfectly.  I think "make mrproper" and going into the right directory
[/usr/src/linux-2.2.5] were what did the trick.  Your way would probably
work as well.
Now I just have to reinstall Samba et. al. (I repeatedly reinstalled to
sidestep any bad compile artifacts.)

Thanks.

I ran into that problem before.  Here is what I did to get it to
compile...

cd /usr/src/linux
make distclean
make clean
make mrproper
make xconfig
make clean
make dep
make zImage
make modules
make modules_install
mv /boot/vmlinuz /boot/vmlinuz.old
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/vmlinuz
/sbin/lilo  (VERY important or linux might not boot!)
