Strange. It didn't work like that... I kept getting prompt for which files
that I wanted to get patched. After examining the directory structure, I
move the patch to /usr/src and created a symlink v2.2.5 --> linux. Unless I
didn't have the file in the right location, I had the patch in
/usr/src/linux.
