    This is to Steve from the meeting last night. Hope you're on the list.
In order to get at RedHat's sources (as was said last night, better just to get the source from kernel.org) you need to first of all install kernel-2.4.9-13.src.rpm (I have 13 available right now so I'm using that).

go to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/

In here there is the linux-2.4.9.tar.bz2 file. YOu need to Unbzip and untar it.

[root at localhost SOURCES]# tar jxf linux-2.4.9.tar.bz2

This unbzip2s and untars the file to a predefined directory simply called 'linux'. Hop in there and your .c files are in the subdirectories. Hope that helps.
