When I was still running SuSE 5.2 I tried to apply the kernel patch for
2.0.34 to the SuSE 2.0.33 kernel. My kernel source was corrupted and so
I had to reinstall it. I tried several times to apply the kernel patch
without success. I thought I had perhaps forgotten how to run the
"patch" program. I thought I was downloading compatable and approved
kernel patches from the SuSE FTP site. As it turned out, the patches
were the same standard ones I can download off of Sunsite. I found out
(the hard way) that the standard kernel patches cannot be applied to the
SuSE kernel source without corrupting it. I instead uninstalled the SuSE
kernel source and installed the standard Linux 2.0.33 kernel source from
the SuSE CDROM. I've been applying patches and using the standard kernel
source ever since. When I upgraded to SuSE 5.3, the kernel source was
left untouched since I already had the patched kernel source for 2.0.35
intalled on all of the systems I upgraded.
