Always read the release notes! They're important; as I've discovered.

As of FC3, kernel-source is no longer built. To get the the source tree, we need to get the .src.rpm, and do a:

$cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS

$rpmbuild -bp kernel-kernelversion.spec

$make oldconfig

$ln -s /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-kernelversion/linux-kernelversion /usr/src/linux



or mv the whole tree to /usr/src/linux

I discovered this while trying to compile and install hostap*. After the above steps, hostap* drivers compiled, and was installed successfully.

The release notes also mentioned compiling without the exploded source tree; but I haven't successfully done that. More zen needed, methinks.

Another FC zen; to load vlan configuration at boot time, change the necessary at /etc/sysconfig/network or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethx

The parameters are included in sysconfig.txt file; usually in /usr/share/doc/initscripts-version/
