The FC5t3 release notes contain this command line example as the way to download the current kernel source:
yum install yum-utilsyumdownloader --source kernel
yum don't know what it means, I don't know what it means, and I can't figure any way to tweak it to mean something.

------- Additional Comments From kwade@redhat.com 2006-03-08 18:32 EST ------- Thanks, this bug was fixed for the FC5 final notes. We had some problems with the output XML from the Wiki concatenating lines of commands together.
From:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Kernel
That now reads:
su -c 'yum install yum-utils' su -c 'yumdownloader --source kernel'
That is, use yum to install yum-utils, which includes yumdownloader. Use yumdownloader to get the kernel source. Do all this using su -c, asking su to run a command as the super user (root).
