Sing after me: there is no 2.2.12 kernel source for m68k
look at sunsite.dk or a mirror:
ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/pub/Linux/680x0/v2.2
-r--r--r-- 1 ftplinux ftpfau 14037509 Jul 19 1999 linux-2.2.10.tar.gz
This is the latest 2.2.x kernel source for m68k. There might be other kernel
sources specifically for macs if you are using that, better ask the mac guys
for help then.
You either use the debian source and respective patch deb (2.2.10, if they
still exist on the mirrors), or use the m68k kernel source and patches
ftp.uni-erlangen.de:/pub/Linux/680x0/kernel-patches/2.2.10
(the debian patch package might include more patches, though).
Ask Linus why some of the patches have not made it into the main source.
Or, maybe read the FAQ and the linux-m68k website first?
