Okay, where do I get that package from? And after it is installed, what is
the exact command I should run to move autoconf.h?

Andrew,

Respect the syntax. Perform:
$ ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`
if you do not have a directory under:
/lib/modules/`uname -r`
this means you need to have the kernel-devel package installed.
