Setting up Linux for EMC

The talk on the list about the NIST EMC software has been enough to get me
motivated to setup RedHat 5.2 Linux on my shop computer. I have played a
little with Linux previously, so the basic setup went OK and the system is
running X-windows just fine and is communicating to my Windows NT computers
over the network just fine. I have loaded the RTLinux file from the NIST
site into my /usr/src directory and have run the tar command to unpack it
and all is fine.

The patch utility seems to run OK except that it seems there are a lot of
files it can't find to patch, but when it completes I now see a number of
RTL references in my Linux directory.

My problem starts when I try to run "make mrproper" from the linux
directory. I get a message that says "make:*** No rule to make target
'mrproper'. Stop." I get this same error if I try any of the "make config"
variations also. Any idea what I am doing wrong and how to get the make
function to run?
