Not even close Paul. You have obviously never untarred kernel sources before. All linux kernel sources untar to "linux", so if you untar that new 2.0.35 source you just downloaded and you have 2.0.34 in /usr/src/linux, well, now you have both in /usr/src/linux. Also, some people like to have multiple kernel sources on hand, in which case your advice is also impractical. A symlink to your active source directory is the best way to handle either situation, and your advice was just plain bad. Paul Brun wrote:

P.S. It is better practice have the entire source code in the /usr/src/linux directory instead of creating a symbolic link. It is easier to patch the kernel when all is in the real Linux directory.
