You can find the sources for kernel version 2.4.3 on kernel.org, but the
"-12" package revision is specific to the distribution that is being
mentioned in that documentation.  If they mean 2.4.3 for RedHat you may
find it on their ftp site.  Or you may try rpmfind.net to find an older
package.

If you can provide more details on the failure (strace, etc.) and
perhaps the rest of your configuration, I would still recommend posting
this to the linux-kernel list.  It is probably a known problem, in which
case you'd get a quick response.
