You need to have the kernel sources installed and a proper .config file
created.  You can do this by installing the kernel sources for your
distro (if they're not), cd to /usr/src/linux, make menuconfig (or
whichever config style you prefer).  You don't need to build a kernel,
but I would recommend stepping forward to a newer kernel than the 2.0.x
kernel included with Red Hat 5.0 (unless, of course, you have some
system dependency on the old kernel).
