You do.... look in /boot and you will find a file like config-2.4.20-31.9
just copy that to the proper location and rename it.
If you want to create your own custom kernel for your system, please read;
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/ch-custom-kernel.html
http://www.digitalhermit.com/linux/Kernel-Build-HOWTO.html
Hint: 'make mrproper' followed by 'make oldconfig' will cleanup the failed
attempt(s) and generate a workable base .config file based on your current
(working) kernel with the extra features not needed turned off.
