Hmmmmm, those 2.2.11 raid patches did not work for me.  After applying and
ignoring the 2 errors, I got this upon compiling:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.12/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486

This was a stock 2.2.12 kernal from the tar-ball, with only one other
patch applied first: ide.2.2.12.19991014.patch
After applying the IDE patch, the kernel did compile without error.  But
after then applying the patch raid0145-19990824-2.2.11 the compile failed
as shown above.  Anyone have any thoughts, suggestions, ideas ?

Thanks in advance,
Robert

<going back to try applying in the opposite order to see what does>
