No, no requirement for X.

Yep, sounds ok to me. I tend to keep my kernel sources in /usr/src/linux-2.4.7,
with a symlink /usr/src/linux->linux-2.4.7. Dunno if that's the convention,
but it works for me.
Rob, you would probably be better off asking this on the linux newbie list -
the kernel list is very busy.
Hope this helps - feel free to mail me directly.
