Kernel upgrades

I'm trying to install MythTV on Fedora Core 5 following this guide:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php...re#Filesystems

When I get to the point where it tells me to setup a custom KVER using this command:

echo "export KVER=\`uname -r\`" >> /etc/profile.d/kver.sh

I get bash: export `-r`: not a valid identifier.

What am I doing worng or how do I remedy this?

uname -r should be correct, have a look at what's in /etc/profile.d/kver.sh,
it should be exactly:
export KVER=`uname -r`

make sure you're using ` (near the tab key) after the back slashes and not ' (near return)
