SubjectRe: Correct working directory to apply patches
On Sunday, Apr 12, Spirilly (spirilis@mindmeld.dyn.ml.org) spake thusly:
> Hi,
> What is the correct directory for applying Linux kernel patches?
> /usr/src, /usr/src/linux?
> Should there be a /usr/src/v2.1.95 or whatever version number present as well?

The following setup works:

/usr/src/v2.1.95/linux/... (README, Makefile, etc. - the source tree)
/usr/src/linux -> v2.1.95/linux

# cd /usr/src
# patch -p0 < patch-2.1.96
