I have installed Knoppix 4.0 from DVD and am looking for (among other things) the 2.6.11 kernel source.
It must be somewhere in the 4 gigs but I've not been able to find it...
Help on howto locate it and other available packages would be appreciated.

No. The post that you gave a link to is clearly by someone who insists on "installing" Knoppix to hard disk. If you look, the things they talk about not being there after a "hard disk install" are certainly on the disc when Knoppix is run as intended from the optical media. It's just another case of something not working after a hard disk install, not anything missing from the disc.

I'm not sure about the sources though. They certaibly might be missing. I'm still waiting for the official ISO to be released so haven't seen a 4.0 DVD yet.

I did install Knoppix on a hard drive... I still have and can boot the DVD.... if the sources are on the DVD
can you tell me where they are and how to extract them.

Thanks

Ted,

Read my post. I tried to make it very clear that 1) I do not have the 4.0 DVD, I'm waiting for an official release, and 2) I don't know if the sources are on the DVD or not. You gave a link to a post about thing "missing" that are not missing at all, just a result of yet another problem with installing Knoppix to hard disk, and I was pointing out that the stuff mentioned in the link was not missing from the disc. But I tried to make it clear that I have no information on the status of the sources you seek.
