You can get full source to not only the entire kernel, but also every package that's part of the standard 8.0 release. If you downloaded the ISOs, you probably got 3 full of binaries, and then there would have been 2 ISO of sources. You can also get from Red Hat's FTP site or any one of their mirrors (see http://www.redhat.com/mirrors.html). When you set up your 8.0 system, pay special attention to setting up up2date. This will give you easy access to all the security updates for your release, plus give you easy access to the sources. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Because the ordinary kernel RPM that follows most Linux distributions is in fact the kernel source code, and not only a binary kernel code. This is so because it is customary for many Linux users to recompile the kernel (or compile some modules) in order to fine tune the kernel code for the specific hardware. The kernel source RPM is something else, and very few people play around with the kernel source RPM. In fact, I cannot think of anything you can use the kernel source RPM except in order to make a new kernel RPM be it kernel source RPM or ordinary kernel RPM. So do not use the kernel source RPM. (What I would like is a howto for using other source RPM. I get confused by all the files included.) -- Jon Haugsand, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.norges-bank.no -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

The source code for the kernel should be either installed (check /usr/src/linux) or available as an additional (large) package that you can install from your install media. IIRC, it goes by something like kernel-source-.rpm, i.e. kernel-source-2.4.17-i686.rpm. It's been a while since I've dinked w/ this specifically, so hopefully it's somewhat close. This version of the kernel is the one that RedHat uses, which may be slightly different than the plain 'vanilla' one you would find at www.kernel.org, which is where the main hub of Linux kernel development resides.

Of course you can get the source code. That's what openSource is all about. How did you get your copy of RH 8? You should have 6 CDs. 3+ of which have rpms of all of the source.
