Hmm, be aware that you seem to mixing kernel versions 2.4.18 and
2.4.20, so I wouldn't expect the patch to go in cleanly. If the version
mismatch is just a typo, I would still would not be surprised if there
are problems since the Debian kernel source has already had some
patches applied.
What is this "grsecurity" patch, and why do you want it? Why not just
go for a Debian 2.4.21 kernel?
Nick.
