Am I correct in thinking that the kernel source code can now be found in one of the SRPM packages? If so, then it's still on the disks, right? So Red Hat *does* distribute them? Note: I am aware that the SRPMS disks are a different set, and that someone would then have to download the binary ISO images plus either the kernel SRPMS independently or the SRPMS ISO images as well. However, it sounds like a more-consistent approach since all source code is found in SRPMS rather than in binary RPM packages. What, if anything, am I missing? Cheers, -- Rodolfo J.
