This has already been done a long time ago in the fedora.us kernel-module-devel package. It's not hardlinked, but symlinked, though. http://cvs.fedora.us/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/pkg/kernel-module-devel/ http://cachalot.mine.nu/3/RPMS.extras/kernel-module-devel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3-0.6-0.fdr.1.i386.rpm http://cachalot.mine.nu/3/SRPMS.extras/kernel-module-devel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3-0.6-0.fdr.1.src.rpm
