Chris, Aha, this is slackware 9.0, right? I had the same problem, I wonder why they stopped putting the kernel source on the cd. You simply need to download this package using wget like this. wget ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/slackware/slackware-9.0/slackware/k/kernel-source-2.4.20-noarch5.tgz then type installpkg kernel-source-2.4.20-noarch5.tgz and try again. Hope this helps.
