Subject: patching 2.4.3
i just downloaded the patchfiles for 2.4.3 and after trying:
patch -p1 < linux-2.4.3-core-xfs-1.0.patch.gz
i immediately get:
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch:**** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
i also tried the linux-2.4-xfs-1.0.patch and i get a lot of jiberish fly
by then it asks for file to patch: if i denote linux/ or linux-2.4.3
then it says:
patch:****File /usr/src/linux is not a regular file -- cant open
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
