Everyone

 I e-mailed some time ago about setting up a web server with my laptop
 with windows98 AMD K6 475 and my Cyrix Computer 300 processor
 which was running Red Hat 6.0 but is now running Mandrake 7.1

After some good advice I am planning to buy 
2 network cards it was
just the next bit that confused me
 
compile the appropriate kernel modules and link them together
with a special Ethernet cable called a "crossover" cable (which is
designed for linking two machines direct to each other).

The above paragraph does not mean much to me I know my Laptop
has to be linked to my Computer via cabling but what's this bit
about kernel modules?

P.S
 
If anyone does come through Bury St Edmunds I would be interested
to know as I don't drive.
