Hello Everyone,
I wanted to recompile the kernel from source. I downloaded the
source rpm (kernel-2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.src.rpm) from centos and
installed the rpm. In /usr/src/redhat ? I unzipped and untar?d
the linuxx-2.6.9 base files. After doing that I wanted to patch
the kernel with the numerous patch files that came with the src
rpm.
The problem that I am having is that a lot of the patch files
fail ? an example:
patch -p1 < ../linux-2.6.9-megaraid-update.patch
patching file drivers/scsi/megaraid/mega_common.h
Hunk #1 FAILED at 27.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file
drivers/scsi/megaraid/mega_common.h.rej
patching file drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_mbox.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 10.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 217.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 244.
Hunk #4 FAILED at 286.
Hunk #5 FAILED at 340.
Is this not the right procedure for patching the kernel?
Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
