Having read the reference, I agree with the argument. But section 10.2 of the Administrators Guide for 9.1 argues that the -/linux directory should be a symlink to the current kernel and says YaST should do this for you. I am a tad confused by this. If I do my own kernel, in the -/linuxMyWay directory, I actually use headers from the -/linux directory? This seems fine for linking library functions, but for linking concurrently compiled kernel modules, this seems wrong. Are we actually talking here about the difference between #include <SomeLibraryHeader> and #include "SomeConcurrentlyCompiledModuleHeader"? I am not so far into kernel hacking yet, but my Long Delay before Kernel Boots problem is forcing the matter, and this discussion seems to be providing some possible answers as to why I can't compile kernel.org kernels before 2.6.4 on 9.1.
