You're perfectly right. I thought "patch" would stop and ask me something, but the error was silently buried under lots of "patching file" lines. > If you do the patching without the 2.6.8.1 patch everything should be fine.

Hello everybody, today I patched myself up from 2.6.7 vanilla to 2.6.10 vanilla, but after all patches succeeded, "make menuconfig" shows "v2.6.8.1 Configuration". Even worse, a compiled kernel calls in his bootlog himself "2.6.8.1". When installing the whole kernel package, this behaviour doesn't show up.
