Thanks to the maintainers of the modified Fedora, the installation went = very well. I've still got a lot to learn but it's looking good. My = first task will be to build from source my wireless driver however, the = symlinks' build' and 'source' in the /lib/modules/2.6.... Directory are = broken and they point to /usr/src/ which is empty. =20 I found a kernel devel package on my DVD image but yum states that it is = installed. I can't see any other package which might be the kernel = source. I could go kernel.org and download the source but I'd like to = use the DVD until I get internet access. =20 After all that waffle, here's my questions: What is the kernel source package name I need to tell yum to install? When I install this way, where will the source be located, so that I can = rebuild the broken links? Many thanks.
