how to update the unifdef without network when compiling kernel src for x86_64 arch

[xkdcc]

Hi.

1. Configuration: Fedora 6 (KERNEL-2.6-18-1.2798)
2. I don't have my NIC drivers.
3. Then I have the NIC drivers source, I need compile it with kernel source support.
4. I copy the kernel source rpm to my F6 by USB Flash Dis. But I need to use commands below:
   rpm -ivh KERNEL-2.6-18-1.2798.fc6.src.rpm
   rpmbuild -bp --target=x86_64 /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec
   Building target platforms: x86_64
   Building for target x86_64
   error: Failed build dependencies:
          unifdef is need by kernel-2.6-18-1.2798.x86_64
5. I got information that someone suggest me to do command:
   yum install unifdef
   but it needs connect to network. You know, I can't now withou NIC drivers!
6. What else can I do?

Thank you.

This question is off-topic for this list and is better suited to
fedora-list.

However, now you're here:

You can get unifdef by downloading it from your network-connected
machine from here:
http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/6/x86_64/os/...

Transfer it to your target machine using your USB stick, then install
it using RPM:

# rpm -Uvh unifdef-1.171-5.fc6.x86_64.rpm

(this package may actually be on your install media).
