Fedora Linux Install Linux Kernel Headers And Developer Files

by

To install the Linux kernel headers and development files on a Fedora Linux system, you can use the dnf package manager. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open a terminal and update the dnf package manager’s cache by running the following command:
    sudo dnf makecache
  2. Install the kernel headers and development files by running the following command:
    sudo dnf install kernel-headers kernel-devel

    This command installs the kernel headers and development files for the currently running kernel on your system.

  3. If you need to install the headers and development files for a specific kernel version, you can specify the kernel version in the dnf command. For example, to install the headers and development files for the kernel version 5.15.8-200.fc35.x86_64, run the following command:
    sudo dnf install kernel-headers-5.15.8-200.fc35.x86_64 kernel-devel-5.15.8-200.fc35.x86_64

After the installation is complete, you should be able to compile and install kernel modules and other software that require the Linux kernel headers and development files.
