The patching worked fine, indeed. :-)

Now I've even configured everything using "make xconfig" which took me
quite a while to get trough the lot of options.

"make dep" worked without problems as well.

Now, the compiling itself. I get:

[root@sarpc linux]# make zImage
gcc -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2  -o scripts/split-include
scripts/split-include.c
scripts/split-include include/linux/autoconf.h include/config
/usr/src/bin/arm/arm-linuxelf-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include
 -mapcs-32 -mshort-load-bytes -mcpu=arm7 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe  -c -o init/main.o init/main.c
make: /usr/src/bin/arm/arm-linuxelf-gcc: Command not found
make: *** [init/main.o] Error 127

Now I'm suspecting that the so called "new binutils package" may be
missing. Something to do with the ELF format support?

What else do I need to successfully compile a 2.2.x kernel? And if I'm
missing something, please point me to the URL where I could fetch
everything I'm missing.

And in addition to that, concerning the patch system. I've now applied
2.2.1, 2.2.2 and 2.2.3 over the linux-2.2.0 kernel source, as well as
2.2.3-rmk1. What do I have to do, if RMK has released the 2.2.4-arm
patch over the 2.2.4? Do I have to start from the 2.2.0 with patching
till the official 2.2.4 and finally his 2.2.4-rmkx or can I apply the
upcoming patches onto the source I have now?

Thanks _a_lot_ for your help in advance! :-)
