Ok, you give an important detail... Suppose the new mm5 patch is released... how can I reverse before apply the new patch? Could you suggest me the command? So I have an idea how to do... > > -- > Eric Gaumer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Just another question... Suppose I would like to patch the kernel with 2 different patches for different problems...for example mm4 and RTC for Real Time Clock... Should I use the same command: patch -p1 < /path/2.6.8.1-mm4.bz2 patch -p1 < /path/rtc-patch.gz Or should I use a dfferent way? If I forget what patches I have installed how can can I see the list of installed paches? :) Thanks and sorry for the log list of questions...I'm a Newb...
