I've been horribly misunderstood. I've already installed previous versins of the source. I just was looking for a gz or bz2 archive rather than an rpm. Why? man I don't know. Anyway I ended up installing the kernel-source-2.4.21-151.i586.rpm.
Well... you could use mc to see inside the .rpm and expand whatever part of the contents you like. After all, it is gziped.
One question, whats the diference between a kernel-source-2.4.*.rpm and a kernel-source-2.4.*.src.rpm (rpm vs src.rpm)
It seems the later is the sources to the sources, with all patches unapplied, etc, etc. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
