I want to try patching my kernel from 2.4.10 to 2.4.18. From what I
read, I must use each patch between the two revisions. So I need to
run the 2.4.11 patch first, but the name of the patch suggests that I
should avoid it. "patch-2.4.11-dontuse.gz" Does that mean I should
not run the system based on that patch, but that it would be OK to use
it and move on the 2.4.12 patch?
I've never patched a kernel before. Does anyone have any
suggestions? (I want to patch instead of downloading the newer kernel
for two reasons. I'm on a dial-up and I want to learn to patch.)
