The source code for the kernel should be either installed (check /usr/src/linux) or available as an additional (large) package that you can install from your install media. IIRC, it goes by something like kernel-source-<version><architecture>.rpm, i.e. kernel-source-2.4.17-i686.rpm. It's been a while since I've dinked w/ this specifically, so hopefully it's somewhat close. This version of the kernel is the one that RedHat uses, which may be slightly different than the plain 'vanilla' one you would find at www.kernel.org, which is where the main hub of Linux kernel development resides.
