To download the kernel src.rpm of the latest FC3 security update kernel would have been the right choice. The release notes explain how to handle that src.rpm. Using rpmbuild the right way patches the base kernel tarball with the set of patches the Fedora kernel has. Btw. the set of patches of the current FC3 kernel can be online viewed through CVS web interface: http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/kernel/FC-3/ > Nick Bishop Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG http://pgp.mit.edu 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora Core 2 GNU/Linux on Athlon with kernel 2.6.11-1.35_FC2smp Serendipity 00:05:07 up 7 days, 7:50, load average: 0.22, 0.24, 0.21
