when you install redhat linux, you can select to install the
kernel-include and kernel-source
but I think the kernel include files come with redhat7 (i am not sure
about rh6) won't let you to compile a kernel module by using
/usr/include/linux (they ask you to use /usr/src/linux-xxx)

I have a important question about compile driver here, sometimes we install
RedHat Linux
When you boot the system , it will not include the kernel source, if we
don't have kernel source ,
whether can we compile the driver (NIC).
I am confused, beacuse we need include many kernel header file, if yo

Type "uname -a", as you did before:

SMP appears here i
It seems to me that you never installed the new kernel. Try 'make install'
or manually cp'ing the vmlinuz and system.map yourself.

uname [the shell command] is a wrapper around the uname system call:
man 1 uname
man 2 uname

No, I see

Try:
cat /proc/stat
or
cat /proc/cpuinfo
/proc/cpuinfo should contain 1
process
this time, when I rebuild kernel
2.4.2-2 , it didn't appear.

This is just the label as defined by the entries in the top-level
Makefile, eg:
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 4
SUBLEVEL = 3
EXTRAVERSION = -ac5

I download RedHat 7.1 last week, and install it in my dual-CPU enviroment.
I try to rebuild kernel that support SMP in kernel 2.4.2 today , but it
failed.
The following is what I did.
