This may seem obvious to you and you must excuse my ignorance on this. Still not sure if you are building a distro or a kernel? Distribution (Distro) - complete OS including kernel, operating system, and all utiltities and applications that go with it Kernel - the core program that interfaces with the hardware in modern operating systems. In the fedora project sources are usually on the last few cds in a 3 to 5 cd set. if you have the source cds you can install the package. under fedora it may be something like kernel-source-2.6.??.-? something something. it will usually put the files in /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS or something like that. I dont use fedora very much. cant be much help here. You can probably also use yum to download the package from the internet. try 'man yum' at the command line. or google for 'linux kernel source yum' - -- JT Morée PC Xperience, Inc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDT81UucZ4lMT2d5IRAjyPAJ9uTeuvz2fCLVGhhzYECqgJc8QRFwCgsW9/ 0XMwPhWZw2WmR9wxpoxSY1w= =0bWz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
