Greg, Where is that document in a typical install?
As somebody who has been working with a variety of Linux distributions, I know that the maintainers of different distributions have different ideas of what system-level documentation is required for users, and for developers. And that inevitably affects the list of documentation that is installed by the default and developer installs. Michael, we need to know what distribution you are working with (and possibly other details), before much meaningful assistance can be provided, because different distributions have their own rules for how the kernel is configured, as well as the list of packages that need to be installed to do a kernel module compile (for example, Ubuntu default compiler is GCC 4.0, but a kernel compile MUST be done using GCC 3.4 [and there are a particular set of packages that need to be installed on the system that is used as a module development platform], while RED HAT seem to use the same compiler for most of their packages). Also, building a module may need a variety of development packages, which are not necessarily obvious prerequisites.
