Installation problems with Comedi

People,

I have been trying to install RTAI/Comedi/Comedilib for over a week now.
Thanks to someone there who sent me a URL for the RTAI-Lab Tutorial I
have been able to get further than at any time in the past, however, I
can't quite get the task completed.

Following the RTAI-Lab Tutorial, Section 2, "Installation" I seem to be
able to get through sub-section 2.7, "RTAI-tests" OK.  That is at this
point I am able to execute the tests described in that sub-section.

Sub-section 2.8, "Comedi" appears to install OK, i.e. I get no error
messages, and everything looks OK until I attempt to run comedi_config
in sub-step 9.  At that point I get a message indicating that the
requested module was not installed.  (The actual command was: 

	comedi_config -v /dev/comedi0 ni_pcimio

and the reason for the message appears obvious, as the directory

/lib/modules/2.6.10-rtai/comedi

is empty.

After going through various versions of this procedure several times
with virtually the same results, I starting looking for the files that
should have resulted from the "make install" command.  According to the
time stamps it appears that they were generated, so I attempted to link
them to their proper location.  Still no help, as I got the same error
message from "comedi_config".

I would greatly appreciate some direction regarding what I can do next.

BTW, I am doing this installation under CentOS version 4.3, a RedHat
Enterprise derivative.
