At this point you should edit the top level Makefile, and look for the
line that says:
EXTRAVERSION =
Make it read something like:
EXTRAVERSION =-jma1
Your kernel, system map and modules directory will now get this
extension.
>make dep
>make clean
>make bzImage
>make modules
>make modules_install
I have never used RH, but you may have to run:
make install
at this point to copy the kernel, system map etc to the boot directory.

At this point, just make sure the configurator uses the correct kernel
source tree if you have more than one.

Have a look at the time-stamp of the driver. Does it pre-date the
PCMCIA build?
Anyway, by using 'EXTRAVERSION' you'll get:
/lib/modules/<kernel-extraversion>/pcmcia
which avoids any confusion.
There are another couple of things you could look at, but see how you
get on with this.
