Super! That got that, BUT something is still off :(

I tried to executed  dpkg-buildpackage  inside /usr/local/src/ and 
/usr/local/src/kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc-2.4.22/ but it ran into lots 
of error.

I suspect I should have executed the  apt-get source -t testing 
kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc  in some other place than /usr/local/src/. 
My kernel-source-2.4.18/ is located in /usr/local/src.

Now I'm left in /usr/local/src/ with

kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc-2.4.22/
kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc_2.4.22-1.1.dsc
kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc_2.4.22-1.1.tar.gz
kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc_2.4.22-1.1_all.deb
kernel-source-2.4.18/

1) Where does all this stuff go?
2) Do I need to trash something before trying again?
3) Where do I execute dpkg-buildpackage once every is in place?

While I'm asking:

4) When I've got the package built, I presumably get a 
kernel-source-2.4.22/, right?
5) I can then patch that with the bridge-nf diff, right? (execute patch 
in kernel-source-2.4.22)
6) Then I continue as with any, eh... "normal", kernel source:
make menuconfig
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
dpkg -i ../kernel-image-2.4.22-subarch_custom.1.0_powerpc.deb
