All,
I have kernel 2.0.18 and I'm in the process of adding patches to get
my kernel current. Well, I've
downloaded all patches up to 2.2.10 (wow, there were a lot of patches
for 2.1). So, I started
adding the patches and everything was going well until I got some
".rej" files, about 5 or 6 patches
into my update. My question is, what do I do now? Seems like some of
the files, like the one for
scsi drivers, would reject because I don't have any scsi devices loaded
in my current kernel. Here
are the files that rejected:
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/defconfig.rej
/usr/src/linux/drivers/cdrom/cdu31a.c.rej
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx.c.rej
/usr/src/linux/Makefile.rej
Do I only need to recompile the kernel? "Running LINUX" from O'Reilly
says that can create some
problems. I don't want to continue adding patches if I need to
recompile the kernel to fix problems
that will help me down the road. I'd appreciate any advice!!
Brian
