Personally, I just use the environment variable approach each time I compile: Thief:/usr/src# PATCH_THE_KERNEL=YES make-kpkg --revision=Thief.20 kernel_image A good way to test if a kernel patch is working is to try applying it manually. I don't remember the directory off the top of my head, but it's something along the lines of /usr/src/patches/patch-name/patch. Look around your src tree to find it. There was a problem a few weeks ago with the LPP not applying to the new 2.4.20 packages that I discovered by trying to apply it directly. With make-kpkg, you can never be sure that the problem lies specifically in the patching process. Good luck. -Alex
