Hi,

The kernel headers for 2.6.8-022stab077.1 can only be gathered after you have downloaded a vanilla kernel source and patched it with OpenVZ 022stab077.1 patch.

first download the vanilla source:
wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.8.tar.b z2

uncompress it:
bunzip2 -dc linux-2.6.8.tar.bz2 |tar -xvf -

then get the OpenVZ patch:
wget http://download.openvz.org/kernel/022stab077.1/patches/patch -022stab077-combined.gz

uncompress:
gunzip patch-022stab077-combined.gz

patch the source:
patch -p0 < patch-022stab077-combined

then the headers for the patched kernel can be found in:
linux/include

I hope this is what you were looking for.
