Hi guys, i was following your advice about patching the 2.4.14 kernel to obtain the ext3 support though i am not being able to do so!!!!
i have the 2.4.14 kernel tree i downloaded from www.kernel.org site in my /usr/src/kernel-2.4.14
and i have the patch-2.4.15-pre9.gz patch in the /usr/src ( as it is recomended in the kernel how to.
i have done the following command:
#zcat patch-2.4.15-pre9.gz | patch -p0 ( as the example of the how to displays!!!! )
and was then presented with the following error: " Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |diff -u --recursive --new-file v2.4.14/linux/CREDITS linux/CREDITS |--- v2.4.14/linux/CREDITS Mon Nov 5 15:55:25 2001 |+++ linux/CREDITS Sun Nov 11 10:09:32 2001 -------------------------- File to patch: /usr/src/linux-2.4.14 patch: **** File /usr/src/linux-2.4.14 is not a regular file -- can't patch"
i would lioke to know ho to apply the pacth!!!! so i can then compile a kernel which supports ext3.
By the way when is the linux kernel 2.4.15 comming out???
Can u guys recomend me some good books about linux programing and stuff??
