A) first install them...
# yum install kernel-devel
B) list where they landed...
# rpm -ql kernel-devel | grep /include/ | more
note they are NOT in /usr/src/linux/include, rather, they are in some
path like /usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-42.EL-i686/include ... and in fact,
there IS no /usr/src/linux ... so, you might just want to do something
like...
# ln -s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-42.EL-i686 /usr/src/linux
so that you can use the assumed default path. Note, with c5, this
path is undoubtably different.
