NDisWrapper and Fedora Core 3

So I'm trying to get ndiswrapper to work on my Fedora Core 2 lappy with a DLink DWL-g630 card. In previous attempts, and reading on the Wiki site, I need to enable stack 16 in my kernel, and they have links for a rpm that will do it, but I tried it once before and it overwrote and screwed my kernels. So I had to format it. I tried installin Core 3 but it wouldn't work for what ever reason. So I'm back to Core 2 and trying to enable stack 16. I don't want to try the rpm again, so I'm looking to rebuild my kernel, but I can't find the stack 16 option/feature. Any help would be awesome.

EDIT sorry, the girl refers to an earlier thread
 
Disabling 4KSTACKS (Kernel hacking ---> Use 4Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb - hit 'N')
and using the default of 8Kb for kernel stacks does the job on my laptop (built-in Broadcom BCM4306).

If the Windows driver you're using requires more than 8K you'll need to patch your kernel and recompile.
 
I would be scared of a patch that increased the kernel stack size by that much too, the Linux devs are working to make them smaller to save memory and you want to quadruple the size of them for a sh!tty Windows driver?
