Install FreeBSD 5.2 or later, or NetBSD-current, on your machine (if it's
a Prism II or Atheros card, at least).
The Radiotap header is a BSDism. The closest Linux equivalent is the AVS
header, which contains the same sort of radio data; I think the latest
version of the linux-wlan-ng drivers support it, but I don't know whether
RH 9.0 includes them or not (this is one of the things that makes me happy
that the main free UN*X I use on my laptop at home has all its wireless
drivers as part of the OS, rather than having, as Linux appears to have, N
different independent projects for the M different types of wireless
cards, with only a subset of drivers being in the official kernel source
tree).
