Thanks for you help Tony.
It seems that comman requires the use of an internet connection. The reason I
wanted to install ndiswrapper was that the NIC in the computer in question is
an unsupported wireless card. Anyway, I found an ethernet card and a very
long ethernet cable for that machine and ran the command as you said.
It seems to have installed a different version of the kernel sources than the
one I wanted, 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4. I don't think it would be safe to just
symlink 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-i686 to that, would it? Do I have to now recompile
the kernel? how do I do that?
cheers,
Tim
