Hi,

Here you can find how to install the kernel-source:

Personal Fedora Core 5 Installation Guide

Be aware to install the right version.

You need to install the kernel-devel package that matches the kernel you are running using yum.

I did yum install kernel-devel and when I do the make it gives me this error now

As mentioned above you must install the kernel source that matches with your kernel version.
It seems that you are trying to install the wrong version. You can check your version with:

uname -r

I installed kernel-2.6.22.2-42.fc6.src.rpm and I get this error now

Check the /usr/src folder for the kernel source installed with the Fedora OS installation. Or else, you can install the rpm ***kernel***.rpm found in your Fedora DVD/CD. I've tried with my FC4-distro it worked
