The rpm installs the source package in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.
however, it seems that the redhat source has a lot of patches in addition to
the kernel source itself. The actual kernel is in the file
linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2 . From the contents of the directory, you would need to
extract the kernel to "/usr/src/linux/" and apply the "linux-2.6.11-*"
patches before you run the configuration (I use make xconfig). I assume that
since redhat included the patches into the src package, you would need to
apply them to the src.
