                      ^^^^^^^^

Your kernel source is still packed. De-pack it, using "tar -xjvf
kernel-source-2.4.20.tar.bz2". You'll get a new directory (either
linux-2.4.20 or kernel-source-2.4.20, not sure). Symlink the new
directory to linux "ln -s <new_dir> linux", and try the patch again.

Yours Sincerely
