just to be clear ('cause I think you may be getting the patch step
wrong). try something like this:$ tar xfj linux-2.4.20.tar.bz2 $ cp -rl linux-2.4.20 linux-2.4.21 $ cd linux-2.4.21 $ bzcat ../patch-2.4.21.bz | patch -p1 $ cd .. $ cp -rl linux-2.4.21 linux-2.4.21-ben2 $ cd linux-2.4.21-ben2 $ bzcat ../patch-2.4.21-ben2.bz | patch -p1 This will leave you with 3 directories (linux-2.4.0, linux-2.4.21 and linux-2.4.21-ben2). You can remove the old ones if you want. On Thu, 2003-08-14 at 06:45, gm c wrote: > I have a g3pb with deb 3.0. I downloaded kernel 2.4.20. Configured a pmac > kernel. I downloaded patch 2.4.21.
