Thanks for your reply, Mark The patch fails to apply (details below) using the patch command, hence the suspicion... The patch file name is iucv-2.4.17.patch It's in linux-2.4.17-s390-4-iucv.tar.gz dated 2002-8-16

When I attempt to patch I see this. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> vmlinux0:/usr/src/linux # patch -p1 < ../linux-2.4.17-aug2001-patches/iucv-2.4.17.patch missing header for unified diff at line 8 of patch can't find file to patch at input line 8 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
