Ah, I used your technique of removing everything manually when the rebase failed, and then doing a "git checkout" of arch/x86_64/boot. That seemed to work. I actually logged the commands, but threw out the log after it worked, figuring it didn't tell you anything new :( Trying to do a rebase again with 1.5.1.4 and see how it works gives only one stop instead of two, so it's "halfway there": : tazenda 14 ; git rebase stock First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it... HEAD is now at a989705...
