I actually got it working using the stock Mandrake kernel (although I had
previously run your makeoldconfig, make dep suggestion and was still having
problems).
The catch is to specify the correct directory spec for the include files.
It's /usr/src/linux/include. Once I got that right, the rest went smoothly.
Now I just have to convince W98 to install from a SCSI CD (it's really an IDE
CDRW but accessed via the ide-scsi interface). If it's not one challenge
it's another...
