That is an bzip2 file.
bzip2 -d will do.
Kernels in tar+bzip2 format can be extracted using 
'tar -xvyf kernel 2.2.x.tar.bz2' (Note the y instead of the z for gzip)

First of all, you will need to ensure that you are using 2.2.13 as your base
kernel source tree (not necessarily as your default kernel). Once done, copy
the patched kernel to /usr/src/ directory and type in the
following:-

if the file is a .gz file type

gzip -d .

If the file is a .gz2 file sorry I don't know how to do this.

once the file has been decompressedtype

patch -p1 < patch-file

NOTE: replace the word patch-file with the name of the file you are using. I
think the -d command works with gzip2but don't quote me on this.

Why wouldn't this be an option in the Mandrake install? I understand this
isn't a stable kernel release, but you could put put an option during the
install for whick kernel couldn't you?

[Cooker] Installing for default boot to 2.2.14-11

1999-12-29 Thread Deven Phillips

How do I perform the install in a manner that will allow me to install the
2.2.14 patched kernel as my default?
