Hi;
I want to start exploring the internal source code of Fedora. It has
come to that point for me in the Linux learning curve. I want something
that is as close as possible to the binaries on my system.
I have found several download sites. The Fedora site seems out of date;
I am not sure if the kernel.org's source is the same as mine. Etc. etc.
It's not.
Where should I get the right source. I have a couple of kernel and
architecture manuals that I have already read. Any special suggestions
about how I should start digging in, gratefully received.
Same place you got the binaries:-)
The source packages are in a directory near the binaries and correspond
to the originally-released product.
For updates, examine the updates tree.
If you only want some source, configure and use up2date.
