Pani Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I have a Mandrake 10.1 DVD.Is there any way to install kernel source during Mandrake installation? I have been told that it's a secret option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 I don't know if it is secret, but I always check the ability to "select individual packages" and then I find it and add it. It is not intuitively obvious, but it can be done. I don't know why it is done this way. Perhaps Adamw could give some insight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Teiresias Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Otherwise is it easy to install after you install the Mandriva system. Just use urpmi kernel-source-2.6 If you are new to Mandriva you should definitely check out info on urpmi /t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Being curious about the "secret" option, I reinstalled by dvd to check it out. You have to change the package selection to full order rather than grouping, and then the kernel-sources appear. It is a little "hidden" that way, but is available during the install nevertheless. And is somewhat obscure. I'm not sure why Mandriva chose to do this. Adamw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
