I start with a fresh 2.4.19 tarball:
$ tar -jxf linux-2.4.19.bz2
$ find linux-2.4.19 -name \*rej -print | wc -l
0
Patch to 2.4.20:
$ bunzip2 -c patch-2.4.20.bz2 | patch -p0
[...]
$ mv 2.4.19 2.4.20
$ find linux-2.4.20 -name \*rej -print
0
Patch to 2.4.21:
$ bunzip2 -c patch-2.4.21.bz2 | patch -p0
[...]
$ mv 2.4.20 2.4.21
$ find linux-2.4.21 -name \*rej -print
0
Now apply the weekly snapshot patch (linux-2.4.21-core-xfs-1.3.0.patch.gz):
$ gunzip -c linux-2.4.21-core-xfs-1.3.0.patch.gz | patch -d linux-2.4.20 -p1
[...]
$ find linux-2.4.21 -name \*rej -print | wc -l
0
Well, hell, this time it worked. :-\ Figures.
I�ll report back after I�ve tried building and booting the new kernel.
