Thanks.

Is there a way of getting PTXdist to download patch files from kernel.org, or do
you have to do this manually ?

I manually downloaded them to /opt/src but it was looking for the files I
specified in kernel-patches-target, so I copied them there manually.
Surely a build should be able to pull in patches from a
common (local or http) repository ?

Roll on the documentation !
