Hi Markus, Thanks for pointing out my error. I've successfully made a patch using a vanilla 2.5.25 and the android 2.6.25 kernel. The patch is around 30,000 lines long before the removal of the goldfish, qemu and other stuff.
How many lines roughly is your working patch file so that I know i'm heading in the right direction? Kind Regards, Ben P.S. Sorry about my multiple postings before, the refresh button is evil!
