Copyrights and GPL are not an issue in cutting CD's for personal
use. I do not imagine that it would be an issue in cutting a
CD at a LUG session. This is all private use, not distribution.
You cannot deletae the .c .h and .o files on /src unless you
plan never to compile kernels. For instance, the files ending
in .o are linkable modules, as used in compiling kernel parts,
and even the modules used at boot time. Delete any of this at
your peril.
