Document downloading source packages #48

Open khbecker opened 3 days ago

We should document how Pro users can pull down the source for linux-realtime.

First they need to have realtime-kernel enabled with pro (or at least get access with sudo pro enable realtime-kernel --access-only) and then run sudo apt-get source <realtime linux package name>. For example, for the latest version currently, you would run sudo apt-get source linux-image-unsigned-6.8.1-1003-realtime. This will download the kernel tree for that version in a folder labelled linux-realtime-6.8.1.

Some kernels don't have have linux-image-unsigned (because they are not signed). A more generic solution would be to use the modules package instead.

Thanks for the info. Andy let me know of another way to do it that is more generic: sudo apt-get source --only-source linux-realtime
