Try this: cd /usr/src zcat patch-2.2.0-pre3.gz | patch -p0 (or) cat patch-2.2.0-pre3 | patch -p0 (do this for each pre patch, starting from the lowest number) Afterwards you will have a fully patched up pre9 source :) -- ----- -- - -------- --------- ---- ------- ----- - - --- -------- Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
