Assuming:
1) You fetched the linux-2.2.13.tar.gz source (or .bz2)
2) You extracted it while in /usr/src
3) This created /usr/src/linux
4) The patch file raid0145-19990824-2.2.11.gz has been downloaded into /tmp
Then:
1) gunzip /tmp/raid0145-19990824-2.2.11.gz
2) cd /usr/src/linux
3) patch -p1 < /tmp/raid0145-19990824-2.2.11
There will be 2 rejections, but just ignore them (do NOT say yes to
"assume reverse" if asked) and configure, build, install your kernel
as normal.
