How to install the kernel source

[Chethiya K Ranaweera]

Hello,
I tried to install FC5 kernel source package so that I can recompile
the kernel. But when I used rpm -qa | grep kernel , I could not see
the kernel source. Then I used yum localinstall but it also failed.
Can someone tell me what I can do about it. Thanks

source rpms are not shown in rpm -qa output but there are installed to
/usr/src/redhat/*

kernel source are no more packaged as an i386.rpm package.
You have to install the src.rpm package.
I'm still on FC4, but have a look on Fedora documention:
/usr/share/doc/HTML/index.html
