It's not the only problem you'll run into.  You'll need an ELF compiler &
binutils & libc to compile a 2.2 kernel.  I'm trying to upgrade my own
machine right now, and you can hear the problems I'm having.

I can however guess that you're not using the correct options to patch
- you should change into the /usr/src/linux directory and type `zcat
/path/to/patch-2.2.1-19990128-1.gz | patch -p1'.

Even with this correct, I do think you're going to have a lot more
problems..
