Yes, I forgot that detail, 2.1 release.

You are correct on that one. I searched my system and couldn't find it. 
I had to install my kernel sources then linked 
/usr/src/linux/include/asm-generic/page.h to /usr/include/asm/. The 
installation is running as I type, but it has made it past the previous 
error, so I think I am good.

Thank you for the assistance,
