Hi Ron,
I don't have Fedora, but there should be similarities to RedHat packages.
Issue "rpm -qa | grep kernel", you will see all the packages installed
relating to the kernel.
kernel-smp.x.x.x.x.x.x
kernel-utils.x.x.x.x.x.x
kernel-source.x.x.x.x.x
There may also be some openafs-kernel packages installed, but ignore that
for now.
If you don't see one labled kernel-devel.x.x.x.x, you will need to install
it. It is a package on your Fedora CD. Then you'll have the proper kernel
libraries to make a build. You'll see the subdirectory under /lib/modules/.
Good luck.
