Hi,
I'm trying to apply the 2.6.18-rc6 prepatch (from http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.18-rc6.bz2) to the 2.6.17.11 sources (from http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.17.11.tar.bz2) using
patch -p1 < ~/patch-2.6.18-rc6
and I'm seeing various error messages, e.g.:
patching file Makefile Hunk #1 FAILED at 1. 1 out of 39 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej
...
patching file arch/um/kernel/time_kern.c Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n] Apply anyway? [n] Skipping patch. 1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file arch/um/kernel/time_kern.c.rej
Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal?
I'm downloading the 2.6.17.11 tarball again just in case I've confused something, but I've been untaring the raw material from a file I have called linux-2.6.17.11.tar.bz2, so it seems unlikely.
Any advice appreciated!
Thanks,
