OK a quick followup, here's what I did.

I installed the kernel-source-2.6.5-1.358

ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358/ /usr/src/linux
cp /usr/src/linux/configs/kernel-2.6.5-i586.config /usr/src/linux/.config
make oldconfig
make
make modules_install
make install


(reboot)

wget -nd 
ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre21.tar.bz2
tar jxvf linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre21.tar.bz2
cd linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre21
less README
make config
make
make all
make install
cd /etc/wlan/
less wlancfg-DEFAULT

(probably edited the file)

mv wlancfg-DEFAULT wlancfg-myESSIDhere

ln -s /home/X86/linux-wlan-ng-0.2.1pre21/etc/rc.wlan /etc/rc.d/init.d/
cd /etc/rc.d/init.d/
./rc.wlan status
./rc.wlan start

chkconfig rc.wlan --add

...

The above is pieced together from my bash history, hope it helps. Use it 
for clues rather than as a recipe.
