Mandriva 2007: kernel source package
It surprised me so much that Mandriva 2007 4CDs do not provide kernel source package. Googled result says it would be installed in MCC/Software Management/Installable packages, while querying the term “kernel-source” returns no results. Later I fix this issue by executing the following command:
# urpmi kernel-source-2.6.17.8mdv (Note, this is a period, not hyphen after 17)
[root@localhost /]# urpmi kernel-source-2.6.17.8mdv ftp://mirror.tuxinator.org/MandrivaLinux/official/updates/2007.0/i586/media/main/updates/kernel-source-2.6.17.8mdv-1-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm
1% of 50.8M completed, ETA = 2:26:41, speed = 4909
Or open other termine and use wget to download this file. My current kernel version is 2.6.17-5mdv. It must be installed before running vmware in Mandriva2007.
