How can it? I have 2.1.120 running on my machine, but the
sources are all gone (I just have 2.0.35 on at the moment). What
information does the running kernel provide? Surely not header files;
and we are talking about *building* the code, not running it.
If indeed all it needs is the running kernel, and not the
kernel sources or include files, then surely this discussion is moot?
I was under the impression that pcmcia modules does need the kernel
sources in order to build, but I could be wrong.
