Nope, patch-kernel only knows about 2.6.x and 2.6.x.y kernel versions, nothing about -git or -rc versions. To apply -rc or -git patches to some 2.6.x baseline, either use 'ketchup' (from http://www.selenic.com/ketchup/ ) or 'grab-kernel-rc' (from http://developer.osdl.org/rddunlap/scripts/ ) [1] Either of these knows how to apply -rc or -bk or -git patches to a baseline kernel version. Holler if you need help with grab-kernel-rc (I maintain it and patch-kernel [most recently].) --- ~Randy [1] fyi, i'm no longer at osdl. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo.
