Install the source from your yellowdog cd
cd /usr/src/linux
cp .config ../DOTconfig

move (or delete) the ydl source.
unpack your new source as /usr/src/linux

cd /usr/src/linux
make mrproper
cp ../DOTconfig .config
make oldconfig

make oldconfig will only ask you about new options.
when you've answered the new questions and itsa done-

make xconfig
modify away.
