Agreed, 2.4.19 is what linux hams should be using.
Kernels are available from many local mirrors, try your country code in place
of 'xx' (us for USA, uk for UK, au for Australia, etc.):
http://www.xx.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/
e.g. http://www.au.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.19.tar.bz2
For "down under" hams. The bz2 file is handled by bunzip2, and is 5MB smaller
than the gzip file.
Also build the libax25 first, before trying to build the tools and utilities.
