They used to publish the source for their 2.4 kernel on routerboard.com =
(in fact, it's still available at =
http://routerboard.com/files/linux-2.4.31.zip), but I've not seen =
anything for the 2.6 kernel however and the routerboard.com site was =
redesigned a little while ago, seemingly without the links as far as I =
can tell.

It might be a case of you need to ask them for it. Would be interesting =
to see which bits are GPL.
