I'm about to install the 2.2.16 kernel to fix the capabilities bug, and found
that the 2.2.15-A0 raid patch fails in 2 places:
patching file `include/linux/sysctl.h'
Hunk #1 FAILED at 429.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to include/linux/sysctl.h.rej
patching file `drivers/block/md.c'
Hunk #2 FAILED at 22.
Hunk #3 succeeded at 3034 (offset 2 lines).
Hunk #5 succeeded at 3833 (offset 2 lines).
Hunk #7 succeeded at 3888 (offset 2 lines).
1 out of 7 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to drivers/block/md.c.rej
patching file `arch/sparc64/kernel/sparc64_ksyms.c'
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
Skipping patch.
2 out of 2 hunks ignored -- saving rejects to
arch/sparc64/kernel/sparc64_ksyms.c.rej
the sysctl one seems easy to fix, but the drivers/block/md.c one is rather
substantial. since I'm running on a pentium, I don't care about the sparc64
rejects.
I wasn't sure if there was a 2.2.16 patch coming out soon, and I wasn't sure
I wanted to install a "A0" patch ... Any thoughts?
