fedora kernel source

Hi, I am beginning to learn linux. It is both fantastic and frustrating. Now I seem to have difficulty in locating kernelpath adn toolprefix

a.
I tried "ls /usr/src", it displays redhat
I tried "ls /usr/src/redhat", there is a directory called SOURCE I have no idea whether this is just the KERNELPATH(/usr/src/redhat/SOURCE)?

b.
I have no idea how to locate toolprefix

c.
I think my kernelrelease is 2.6.5 But I am not very sure. Do you know how to verify it?

Thank you very much!!

hi there
try

uname -a

this wil give u the kernel release and

u need to install the kernel-src rpm of ur kernel from ur distro CD or gt ur self the kernel source from

www.kernel.org
