 ls -l /usr/src/linux

You don't have to be in a special directory or give a directory as an argument, but how dows it "ask"?
Kernel sources will always get installed to /usr/src/linux-<version>
/usr/src/linux is mostly a symlink to the actual version of sources (can be linked automatically while emerging by setting "symlink" use-flag in make.conf)
