Hi Mahesh,

************************************************************************
Fedora Core 3 no longer includes the kernel-source package. Users who
want to rebuild the kernel are encourage to download the kernel-
<version>.src.rpm source RPM, install it, and build kernel-source from
it. However, if a user wants to build a module against the existing
kernel, the entire kernel source tree is not required.
Refer to the Release Notes for details on both these operations.
************************************************************************
The release note:
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc3/x86/ says
************************************************************************
An exploded source tree is not required to build kernel modules against
the currently in-use kernel.
For example, to build the foo.ko module, create the following file
(named Makefile) in the directory containing the foo.c file:
obj-m := foo.o
KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
PWD := $(shell pwd)
default:
$(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules
Issue the make command to build the foo.ko module.

Is there any other way apart from downloading from the net. Because its a
whotting 38MB file and my dialup conn will burn my pocket.
If anyone is aware of any Magazine giving away the
kernel-2.6.9.1.667.src.rpm, pls inform me.
Best Regards,
