It shouild be on cd 3 in the rpms folder. Or you could pull new ones from www.kernel.org.
Ok - dig - the KERNELS are there, but I want the kernel sources. There was an email about this about a week or so ago. Having a kernel is one thing, having the sources is another.
I can't compile device drivers without having the kernel headers and sources - no video driver, no modem driver, etc etc etc.
Getting slightly pissed off at this 9.2 installation this morning.
