I have pleasure of removing win2k3 from our new Dell PowerEdge 750 and
installing RH9. But there are of course a few issues, which i'm happy to deal
with after windoze, but i won't go into that rant.
The first of which are the Network Drivers. Dell does not support RH9 but i
found a link for drivers in linuxforums from someone doing the same thing,
recommended by dell for Intel 82541GL

When i go to install, I get an error message from make, b/c i did not install
the kernel source (Makefile:65 Linux Kernel Source not found: stop). Why I
didn't install the source i have no idea. I can do that now, but is there any
reason that i should get and compile a newer kerel. My current version is
2.2.20-8 according to uname -r.
Thanks
Jeff
