This is my first (serious) attempt at fedora. The installation went fine. I wanted to install ndiswrappers but turns out the kernel source is not in the default install. The release notes said to issue this command in order to install the kernel source: rpm -Uvh kernel-devel[-xen0]-<version>.<arch>.rpm
This is for building out-of-tree kernel modules; it's not the full kernel source.
and I did this: rpm -Uvh kernel-devel-2.6.11.rpm However, that didn't work, it said it can't find the file or something like that. So, my question is, does this file (kernel-devel-2.6.11.rpm) need to be downloaded,
You can install the kernel-devel package using yum:
# yum install kernel-devel
If you want the full kernel sources, you can get the kernel SRPM from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.src.rpm
or a similar location at your nearest Fedora mirror site.
