Were you really trying to apply a patch from 2.4.6 to a redhat 2.4.18-3
kernel? There have been rather massive changes between 2.4.6 and 2.4.18,
let alone redhat's 2.4.18-3 kernel. I wouldn't expect the patch to apply
properly.

Check for .rej files in the source tree -- conflicts that patch couldn't
resolve.

Check all the code touched by the patch, and make sure it still makes
sense in the middle of changed context. This might take a while.

First check if a newer version of the patch is available, one designed
to apply to 2.4.18 or 2.4.18-ac or something...
