I got the following:
root@suillus:/usr/src > linux/scripts/patch-kernel linux
kernel-tars/Current kernel version is 2.4.4
Applying patch-2.4.5 (bzip2)... 1 out of 6 hunks FAILED --
saving rejects to file Makefile.rej
1 out of 17 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file
mm/vmscan.c.rej
failed. Clean up yourself.
