Hi All: I am patching my kernel (Mandrake 8.0, 2.4.3 kernel, wanting to go to 2.4.13 and higher as they become available). Patch 2.4.11 is labeled as patch-2.4.11-dont-use. Can I skip this patch and go on with 2.4.12? I thought they had to be applied in numerical order?
Second question is, when I run the command "gzip -dc /path/to/patch-2.4.4.gz | patch -pl" I get the message "strip count 1 is not option". I think this was the message, my optical prescription is not as good as it was. I have to say that the documentation regarding where things are on the system, and how to do things like upgrade kernels or patch kernels, is not near what I would like to see. And, yes, I would like a step-by-step, hold my hand, walk through type of instruction </rant> Peace, Dennis in Victoria
