Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by KarstenWade: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Kernel The comment on the change is: stray missing quotes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fedora Core [[GetVal(DocsDict,BeatsVer)]] does not include the kernel-source package provided by older versions since only the kernel-devel package is required now to build external modules. Configured sources are available, as described in this kernel flavors section. - [[Admonition("note", "Instructions Refer to Current Kernel", "To simplify the following directions, we have assumed that you want to configure the kernel sources to match your currently-running kernel.

To create an exploded source tree from this file, perform the following steps: - [[Admonition("note", "Do Not Build Packages as Super-user (root)", "Building packages as the superuser is inherently dangerous and is not required, even for the kernel.
