I'm sorry for asking this obviou
1st- there was no reason for that patch to fail, unless perhaps redhat
shipped you a patched kernel already. download the entire tgz of the
kernel source, and trash that rpm. apply patch. insert rejects by hand.
remake kernel.

scsi... rh5.0 runs fine of course... but...
cd /usr/src
patch < /usr/local/src/tar-files/raid145-0.36.3-2.0.32
...yields failure of linux/fs/buffer.c hunk #2 but that
patch seems to already be in 2.0.32 so I press on...
mv raid
