 Hello guys,
              AFS compilation fails for latest Fedora test kernel, 
2.6.17  2488 (~2.6.18??)
because UTS_RELEASE  was not defined in
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/linux/version.h

I added it by hand and it seems to be compiling until:

Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.17-1.2488.fc6-i686'
Makefile:452: *** kernel configuration not valid - run 'make prepare' in 
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.17-1.2488.fc6-i686 to update it.  Stop.

 UTS_RELEASE now has its own header file,
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/linux/utsrelease.h
and this could fix the first problem, but is the second linked?
Anyone got any clues?
    Thanks,
          Bill
