It is asking you to install the kernel sources
you can do this using redhat package management RPM
the package you need is kernel-2.4.18-14.src.rpm
can be found in any of redhat ftp mirrors/use redhat up2date/ ximian
red-carpet what ever floats your boat.

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/8.0/en/os/i386/SRPMS//kernel-2.4.18-14.src.rpm

to install it you run :
rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.18-14.src.rpm

i: install
v: verbosity
h: to show you the progess in terms of # symbols
