Mike, I don't know the first thing about Megaraid or compiling kernels.  
On the other hand I know that the kernel distributed on the FC3 install 
CD is pretty out of date relative to the latest update version which is 
something like 2.6.10-1.770 or 771.  Wouldn't you want to upgrade the 
kernels and libraries to the latest stable versions before compiling?

FWIW
