Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection driver on fedora 5

Hi,

I am still a beginner on linux and I want to install the Intel(R)
PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection driver on fedora core 5 kernel
2.6.15-1.2054_FC5.
Firstly the basic ieee80211 interface need to be installed.
I have some serious problems installing the ieee80211 interface on my
computer.
I tried with the versions 1.1.2, 1.1.12, 1.1.13

For all versions I get the same error message:
,
[root@localhost ieee80211-1.1.12]# make
Checking in /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 for ieee80211 components...
find: /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build/: No such file or directory
egrep: /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build//.config: No such file or
directory
egrep: /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build//include/linux/autoconf.h:
No such file or directory
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build
M=/home/mugdiman/Desktop/ieee80211-1.1.12
MODVERDIR=/home/mugdiman/Desktop/ieee80211-1.1.12 modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5/build: No such file or
directory. Stop.
make: *** [modules] Error 2

When I have a look at the directory which is missing, i see it is a
link to a directory which is actually missing.

[root@localhost 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5]# ls -l

I guess there are some kernel directory changes with new new redhat.
Can you help me out on this problem?


Thank you very much.
Dennis
