The other posters in this thread have given some pretty good advice; a tip
that may save you disk space is using 'cp -al' to copy kernel trees.

What that does is hardlink everything in both directories. When you apply
a patch, patch realises it is hardlink'ed and skip the file. If it has to
do something it deletes and recreates the file.

Very handy.
