I'm confused about how to properly patch a kernel. I tried to patch a kernel recently with Mingo's patch, and it failed. In researching the problem, I came up with this: http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ/HowToApplyAPatch >From what I can understand, this document is telling me that I would need to download kernel 2.6 (no incremental versions), and apply the most recent Mingo patch (as of today, 2.6.16-rt20) from there. Prior to reading this, I always thought that you downloaded the most recent full kernel (as of today, 2.6.16.15), the most recent patch (as of today, 2.6.16-rt20), and go from there. Which way is the proper way? -- Josh Lawrence http://www.hardbop200.com
