Wait a minute.. what YOU'VE got there will rename linux (which in a
distribution contains 2.0.31) to 2.1.93 and then you'll drop 2.1.93 in
overtop of 2.0.31, destroying it. This seems fundamentally bad to me to
destroy the 2.0.31 src until AFTER you've finished installing and testing
the 2.1.93.
Or is it just me.
