-acX means Alan Cox's patch to the 2.1.131 kernel tree
ftp://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/alan/2.1/
To compile 2.1.131-ac11, you'd d/l and extract 2.1.131, then cd into
the dir it creates, d/l the patch, then:
gzip -dc patch-2.1.131-ac11.gz|patch -p1
(-p1 since you'd be in the directory instead of one above it)
you could patch from the dir above too, the above is just the way I do it
to make sure I'm not messing with the wrong kernel tree b/c I've broken
my linux symlink.
Speaking of which, has anyone tried getting the raid patch to work on
ac13? It failed with a couple of .rej's for me, but I might have messed
up backing out ac11...
