    SubjectRE: About rebuild 2.4.x kernel to support SMP.

    when you install redhat linux, you can select to install the
    kernel-include and kernel-source
    but I think the kernel include files come with redhat7 (i am not sure
    about rh6) won't let you to compile a kernel module by using
    /usr/include/linux (they ask you to use /usr/src/linux-xxx)

    you can dnload the kernel source from ftp://ftp.kernel.org and build you
    own kernel/NIC driver.
