rpmdev-setuptree doesn't create any directories

Hi,

I am trying to apply a patch to my linux kernel. I have FC8 with kernel 2.6. I found the following instructions on how to build a custom kernel (which I am following):

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/CustomKernel

My problem is that when I run rpmdev-setuptree, it doesn't create any directories, like it should according to the instructions. I am logged as a normal user (not root) and in my home directory. I have no idea what's going on. Any one?

Thank you,

Rodrigo

Have you look for rpmbuild directory? Perhaps you created it at the wrong place.
