Subject: Compiling kernel 2.6.23.1 HELP

Hi,
   I am a kernel newbie, so need some help trying to compile it. 
I have fedora 7 installed. 

While compiling it, I get errors as follows.....

On many forums it said I need to have 2.4 kernel headers. I can't
understand why is it so? Am I missing something?

I used git for getting the latest kernel. 

git-clone
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

Is there something similar for getting kernel headers? Please help. 

Thanks,
Animesh Saxena
