hah. kiddin.

Kernel is always at:  /usr/src/linux

I always start with a fresh kernel from:  kernel.org
It is a tar extrating to current dir linux dir.
        cd /usr/src ; tar xzvf /tmp/kernel*gz 

Ill typically rename the dir pertinantly:
        mv linux linux-2.4.13
        ln -s linux-2.4.13 linux

Then patching is usually as such:
        cd /usr/src/linux ; patch -p1 </tmp/patchfile

Depending of number of "path" elements to disregard in the patch, you may need to 
adjust the -p N Number arg.

good luck.
