..having never done this on centos, here's my advice:
After successfully retrieving the sources using arch, get the kernel source for
your version of centos. I guess it
would be something like:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/I_need_the_Kernel_Source#head-281fb35a7610364136e0486abb595360561f6ae2
Apply the appropriate patch for that kernel version (centos 5 seems to be using
kernel version 2.6.18, so in that
case):
$ cd path_to_the_kernel_sources/
$ patch -p 1 <
path_to_hipl_sources/patches/kernel/2.6.18.0/hipmod-sleep-beet-and-interfamily-all-in-one.patch
And yes, note that for 2.6.18 you need to use the 2.6.18.0 patch (there are
some other 2.6.18 patches there as well
which I should probably be removed from the repo to avoid confusion..)
Check that the kernel configuration is correct (enable beet mode etc). But if I
remember correctly, 2.6.18 is queer in
the way that there isn't a separate configuration option for esp beet (all
other kernels have it), instead it's bundled
with the tunnel mode. So you need to be sure you have esp tunnel mode enabled
in the kernel configuration.
Here's an overview of the other options you should set (don't worry if you
can't find them all as it's compiled from a
number of different kernel versions, just try to get close enough):

Compile & install!
