If the source is installed, look in /usr/src for a directory called linux. Otherwise you will need to download it, perhaps from here: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ The latest version is the file linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 | I wanted to know the kernels work. I suggest borrow or buy a good introductory operating systems computer science book. That will help you with the overview concepts you need to know to learn about specific operating systems such as Linux. Also become familiar with the C programming language; the kernel is written in C. This place: http://www.kernelnewbies.org/ is aimed at introductory hacking on the kernel, but will not be of much help to you until you know various UNIX OS concepts and can read C code.
