That's sure strange, I downloaded 2.0.0, plus the patches 2.2.1, 2.2.2 and
2.2.3, (over the period)... Then the RAID0145-19990309 patch and all
applied cleanly with the following commands...
tar xzf linux-2.2.0.tar.gz
patch -p0 patch-2.2.1
patch -p0 patch-2.2.2
patch -p0 patch-2.2.3
patch -p0 raid0145-19990309-2.2.3
mv linux linux-2.2.3-raid19990309
ln -s linux-2.2.3-raid19990309 linux
cd linux
make config
make ....
....
You get the idea.....
All fine....
