If your running the 2.4.x kernel you shouldn't be downloading external drivers.  They are all included in the kernel source.

The instructions say to use rpm -bb to build a binary of the rpm, but I get an error message that says "This does not appear to be an specfile".  Inside the rpm are two files.  One is the spec file, while the other is a .gz file.
