You are right. I make a mistake. That patch at kernel.org
(patch-2.4.18.gz) is the diff between 2.4.17 and 2.4.18.
He must apply patches upgrading:
2.4.7 to 2.4.8
2.4.8 to 2.4.9
2.4.9 to 2.4.10
..... (go on!)
2.4.17 to 2.4.18
and finally bridge-netfilter patch.
For a moment, I thought patch-2.4.18.gz was the diff between 2.4.0 to
2.4.18. Brain diarea :-))
