Mount your cdrom drive:
su
mkdir /cdrom
mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom
Substitute mcd0a if you have a Mitsumi CD-ROM+interface or wcd0a for
an ATAPI, or scd0a for a Sony CD-ROM, or matcd0a for a
Matsushita/Panasonic CD-ROM. Substitute 1 instead of 0 for the 2nd
CD-ROM drive, 2 for the 3rd, etc.
Next, extract the kernel sources:
cat /cdrom/dists/src/ssys.?? | tar xzv -C / -f -
You're done.

Last time I went to the movies I was thrown out for bringing my own
food. My argument was that the concession stand prices are
outrageous. Besides, I haven't had a Bar-B-Que in a long time.
