Thanks for the input...I must have missunderstood the README in the mantel folder. Is there a way then to go from one kernel version to the next without having to download the whole 25mb? Dialup makes that a problem for me hehe. Thanks again. Mark Doucette. On Wed, 31 October 2001, Anders Johansson wrote:

Those patches aren't for upgrading from the previous kernel version. Those patches are the diffs between the vanilla kernel, as found on kernel.org, and the suse kernel. If you download the kernel sources for 2.4.13 from mantel's home dir, that's what you get if you download the vanilla 2.4.13 sources and apply the patches you have.

Hi all,

I'm trying to update to the newest mantel kernel from my 2.4.12 kernel via the patches-2.4.13-5.tar.bz2 file. I read the kernel how-to on pathing but I didn't get very far with it. I tried issuing the command 'bzcat patches-2.4.13-5.tar.bz2 | patch -p1' from within the /usr/src/linux-2.4.12-SuSE directory, but up came a bunch of stuff about already exsisting files etc etc...and Reapplied etc. I wasn't sure at this point what to do so I thought I'd ask b4 I really fux0red something up. Any help on patching would be appreciated. Thanx

Mark Doucette
