test3-pre4 is short for linux-2.4.0-test3.pre4

first config/make/install a new 2.4 kernel (not avail in the RH62) and
then install the user space ATM in the 0.78 package.I suppose the kernel
version should be exactly the one the patches are against. (test3 pre4)
I can't say I successfully use ATM on Linux since I don't have any
ATM hardware but I could compile the kernel and the atm78 without
errors.It loads the  mpoa  module just fine.So if I don't count the lack
of hardware it works perfectly ;-).
