X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.7 i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Linux kernel developer's mailing list" Subject: Q: Kernel patching Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I've never applied a patch to a kernel before, so please bear with me. Applying patch-2.4.7-ac10 to kernel 2.4.7 I get many messages such as this: 1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file include/asm-um/segment.h.rej The next patch would create the file include/asm-um/semaphore.h, which already exists! Skipping patch. Is this normal? PGA -- Paul G. Allen UNIX Admin II/Network Security Akamai Technologies, Inc. www.akamai.com
