I'm trying to install the kraxel patch for my kernel. I'm following a document to install MythTV. I'm running a gentoo-sources 2.4.25-r2 kernel. the patch says its 2.4.25-r1. Being the noob that I am, I'm assuming this will not patch my kernel, however, there does not seem to be a patch for 2.4.25-r2. Can I apply this patch to it? When I try I get the following message:

Code:

media7 src #gunzip -c patch-2.4.25-rc1-kraxel.gz | patch -p1 --dry-run
can't find file to patch at input line 3
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

File to patch:


Any thoughts?

The r1 patch will work with r2. Make sure /usr/src/linux points to your 2.4.25 kernel

make sure you copy the gzipped patch into /usr/src/linux

cd /usr/src/linux
gunzip -c patch-2.4.25blahblahkraxel.gz | patch -p1


that should work.
