Hi,

This is not a question related to Linux Mandrake but I hope someone on this list can 
help me.

I have some problems with applying a pre-patch from Alan Cox to Kernel 2.2.14. I 
downloaded the source tarball. Unpacked it in
/usr/src. Now I wanted to apply the pre-patch-2.2.14-18. Is this the right one or are 
all pre-patches already included in 2.2.14 ?

what I did in /usr/src is:

# bunzip -dc pre-patch-2.2.14-18.bz2 | patch -p0
can�t find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
| diff -u --new-file --recursive -- exclude-from ../exclude linux.vanilla/CREDITS 
|linux.14p18/CREDITS
| --- linux.vanilla/CREDITS  snap
| +++ linux.14p18/CREDITS    snap

 
Do I have do rename the /usr/src/linux directory to /usr/src/linux.vanilla ????

thanks for the help !
