Patch troubles
I'm not an utter newbie, but I feel like it right now. I have a patch
(to support certain hardware) against 2.0.30 that I've successfully
applied. Good. But I guess I'm just clueless about how to apply the
pre-patch 2.0.31-1 through 2.0.31-7 (to gain support for the LS-120
drive). I've checked the Kernel HowTo, documentation in the kernel
sources, directories from which the patches were downloaded, man page
for patch, etc., but I the patches don't succeed. Even after a fresh
reinstall of the sources, patch repeatedly alerts me that it thinks I'm
trying to reapply a patch. So I guess my questions come to this:
1. What is needed to apply the pre-patches mentioned above?
2. Should the patch against 2.0.30 be applied before or after the
pre-patches?
My thanks to anyone who can help.
