If you're asking how the kernel is configured, you'll find the config
files for each kernel in the /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs/ directory, if
you have the kernel-source rpm installed (not the same as
kernel-2.4.bla-src.rpm!). You can load it from make menufonfig and/or
make xconfig, then play around with the options.
I believe that the installation kernel is the one with BOOT in the name.
