If you look back at older tarball releases (or CVS) you'll see how to do it: go to the patches subdirectory (common) where the patches are split up. Apply the non-dm-component patches for 2.4.21 or whatever from the old tarball, then the up-to-date patches for the dm-components. (e.g. use the 2.4.21 versions of everything except for linux-2.4.26-rc1-devmapper.patch). Alasdair -- agk@xxxxxxxxxx
