hello, there is no such file under that dir, you have to install that, you run: locate file name to get the file and copy that into that dir. regards! James.zhu ---

kernel-devel is not the same as the kernel headers. Traditionally on Linux, if you wanted to build anything kernel related, you would install the full kernel sources. Recently, at least with RedHat, you only install a stripped down version of the kernel source directory, after the kernel has been built.
