Confusion over kernel source
I just want something clarified:
A Mandriva 2008.0 distro would have to come with a kernel, otherwise it wouldn't work, right? So where I have read of people installing a kernel source, should I assume they are writting a different version to the one they have? i.e. it's not possible to have Linux running without a kernel source installed?
If I am wrong, then what is the difference between the 'running kernel', that makes Mandriva work, and a source that somebody might install?
