Current way of downloading sources

[Fernando Apesteguía]

Hi all,

Before 9.0 I used to use sysinstall to download sources for several
distributions including kernel and libraries. However, this doesn't seem to
work anymore. Whatever source distribution I try to download I get the
error that it doesn't exist in the server.

The handbook[1] still says sysinstall can be used to do the job. Is it
right? If so, what could be my mistake.

Thanks.
