Re: raid-n patches in error
Some things to check:
1) does it patch against pristine 2.2.17 (final) successfully?
2) cd into the dir containing source, then, run your patch with 'patch -p1' -- still getting errors?
also some other things to note are that you're using a 'pre' kernel for a kernel that has newer stable versions out (2.2.18, probably packaged but not sure), and that debian kernels tend to have things patched into them before they're released, which might have something else to do with it.
IIRC, there is the 'debian-kernel' mailing list for more information. I'm sure if this doesn't exist I will be quickly corrected :)
