Fedora Core 3 Install Kernel Source

Mirag3 · 06-17-2005, 05:28 PM

I have had a really hard time installing FC3 kernel source, and i was just trying to get a clear guide on how to install it - preferably using yum. I have tried doing

Code:

su
password:*******
yum install kernel-sourcecode

and it just keeps telling me "no match found"

also when i do

Code:

up2date --get-source kernel

it sort of works, but 1) i dont know where it downloaded to 2) i dont really understand what to do from there and 3) It usually downloads a file called kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3, but i really need the smp kernel source (kernel-smp-2.6.11-1.27_FC3) and cant find that source file anywhere.

Look at post #4 in http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=253261 for how to install the kernel source.

Isn't smp just a selection in the .config file “Processor type and features” section?

# CONFIG_SMP is not set
vs.
CONFIG_SMP=y
