- The install-2.2.2d doesn't say that you need to say /foo/src/linux. It
- says that in the example it gave, /foo/src/linux is the directory where
- the kernel source code is located. This is usually /usr/src/linux for
- most people (the recommended place). If you don't have the kernel
- source code, get it, as the release-2.2.2d clearly says.
