I've installed NIKAL19.iso, NI-VISA-4.5.iso, nidaqmxbase-3.2.0.iso and finally LabVIEW8.6.1 in that order on Scientific Linux 5.2 which is essentially RHEL5. Once I put the PCI controller in the correct slot and boot the machine with the PXI crate on, well, I'm floored to find out that
# lsdaq

Detecting National Instruments DAQ Devices
Found the following DAQ Devices:
NI 6221: "Dev1" (PXI15::15::INSTR)
--------------------------------
Which is exactly what I wanted. The next step seems to be to figure out how to use this device. Best way is through examples, right? They aren't there. Oh sure, I have C API examples for daqmxbase, but nothing in LabVIEW examples or nidaqmxbase/examples. Can't find anything to download on ni.com. So, where are they?
